First, to all of you very dear people -- I was so moved by reading the many tributes and remembrances about September 11th on your blogs. God bless you all, and thank you. It meant a great deal to me, and I am sure to many others.

Now... have you ever done a yard sale?
We decided, rather last minute, to do one today.
This is what we hope to be:

But, it is raining. Off and on, more on than off.
We have smooshed our stuff up onto the front porch, put "not for sale"
signs on the porch rockers, and now we'll hope for the best on this yucky day.
We do have some stuff that I really don't expect to sell today, but figured,
"oh what the heck, let's see," because after all, you never know what will happen.
There is an all-original condition old Hoosier cabinet out on my grass,
covered by a couple of big trash bags whenever the rain start up again.
We bought it 30 years ago in Pittsburgh. It's made by Sellers. Yes, nameplate above!
It's time for us to part ways; it won't fit in my kitchen.

If it doesn't sell, we need to find room for it in the kitchen.
I have heard of people who make hundreds of dollars at yard sales.
This may take us awhile. I think we've made about 30 bucks, and 1/2 of that is Annie's.
At this rate, we might be able to buy pizza at the end of the day. But I'm not banking on it. I hope you are all having an interesting weekend! --- Cass
P.S. Best question so far from a yard sale shopper, going through the things on our porch: "Is this your house?" Annie said I should have answered, "No, but the owners are away...."
