Ha ha.......of course!

We've known each other since the 70's from the beach/surf scene. Her folks had a beach house here. Anyway, I kept in touch with her through the years and we ended up dating for a few years. Her Dad was a high school football coach in Miami, where she's from.

I had dinner with them once, along with Angelo Dundee and his wife, longtime friends of the family.

She was a fun girl to hang out with but eventually we went our separate ways....

Neighbors were throwing these out. Quick work with a screwdriver to tighten them up and considering what color to paint them.

Don't forget the bottle openers on the arms.

Back in the age of golden oak, I bought a Mobel bedroom set. I got a queen sized bed. Well, when the wife moved in we got a king sized frame, and two twin xl mattresses, a firmer one for me and a softer one for her. I moved the queen bed to a room in the basement, and I've been looking for matching furniture. Tonight I found a dresser. Same brand, it's identical to the one in our bedroom except ours has one more pair of drawers, so it's a little taller. The guy had a pair of nightstands too, but they're really beat up, so I passed on them. The dresser is solid wood, heavy.
Not free, but less than $100.

This last weekend was yard sale day in our community.
About 60 yard sales in all. Mostly junk but some treasures.

I picked up a small Canon superzoom camera with 3 batteries and a charger for $10. 20mp and image stabilization. Works great.

I also bought this trailer for $100. Not street legal, but I can use it to haul to the dump as long as I avoid the main highway.

It might be the only trailer in Kern County with Okinawa plates.

Looks like it's got a place to mount your 50cal too if you want.

Moved 96 yr old father in law into Independent Living Faility two weeks ago who has never thrown anything away. Cleaning out his house to prepare it for sale has been a nightmare - been at it for three weeks with daily trips to the dump. He had a vintage circa 1950'a LAU box fan that works well but was a rusty mess. Did a tear down and repaint. Found a couple on eBay - asking price $250!



Looked like this one on eBay originally

Wow.

My wife and I have both moved around a bunch over the years. We've been pretty stable since getting together, but then when we downsized, we "cleaned house." I actually wish I'd kept some of the stuff, but nothing that's a big deal. Since my parents were in the military, they also traveled fairly light. I won't be going through that experience. I almost wish I would. It's interesting to go through history, especially if it's in some ways your history.

Once the Trail Boss has been restored, consider getting a Stetson 'Boss of the Plains' coboy hat to go with it and complete the effect!
