Gail warned us that a holiday weekend wouldn't bring good results. It didn't. But I sure did appreciate the help from Doug and Diane Gardiner, Eric, Justin, Larry Laskowski, AND Gail and her kids who came all the way from Spring Creek Nevada to help out.
It wasn't as organized as the last one, we still had as much stuff. The weeds out front are taller now (one month after our first big sale) , obscuring the view from the street...and everyone left town for the Labor Day Weekend. Except us. Eric was too busy at work to advertise on social media during the day all day, and Katie wasn't here tagging all her local friends. And we pretty much know how inept I am with social media of any sort. Dismal turnout.oh well.
It didn't help that I came down with a bronchial infection/cough on Friday and felt really crummy. I mostly SAT and guzzled water , Airborne, supplements, sucked on Zinc and hoped to nip it in the bud. Eric was there for set up and take down. They were able to use Justin's truck since Mike's was out of town. He delivered a China Hutch to Joe and Jannae in Vernal.
The deer in the back yard has only one fawn of two that I was able to spot on Thursdsy evening when I was over there. They look unwell. I know you are not supposed to feed wildlife, but I asked Eric to leave them a bucket of water in the back yard. They ate all the apricots and have moved on to the peaches. So many pits on the sidewalks!

Mike was in Vernal for his niece's funeral. Paris Anderton. Great lady. She'll be missed.
