I hate modern technology

I had some great pictures for you from this last weekend at the beach in Tahoe with Michelle, Chris, and thier nephews -
BUT my iPhone pooped out on me while updating, and I lost EVERYTHING!



I think I will get a pager...

City Sale

Alexis and I had a garage sale this weekend.
We have a HUGE garage in our house, and it is FULL of STUFF.
To be honest, not much of the stuff is mine. Alexis likes to keep EVERYTHING.
We made a deal that whatever came out of the garage for the sale would not go back in.
We filled the entire driveway with THE stuff...

The coolest thing we had for sale was a old school scooter that Alexis used to drive around at Harvard. It hasn't run since 2006...

We sold it for $50 to the Harley Davidson guy that lives next door.
We can't wait to see it zipping up and down the street with a 300 pound biker with a ponytail on it.



The coolest thing we did NOT sell was this shirt. It was Alexis' grandma's...
I wish it was my size and I would have kept it.

We had books...

and toys...


and highly technical electronics... Fax machine, VCR, boombox anyone???

and CLOTHES...lots and lots of clothes...I think those are Erin's Prom dresses next to the graduation gowns...


At the end of the day, we sold:

2 Books

1 Supersoaker

2 Tonka Trucks

1 Rolling Cot

1 Poster Frame

1 Set of Luggage (3 pieces of course)

and 1 Sweet Scooter

We made $91.50!

Jackpot, baby.

We gave 5 bags of clothes to the nice Mexican neighbors across the street, Gratis.
We took 17 bags to the Goodwill.
and the other neighbor just happened to be taking a load to the dump.

Happy Cleaning and good Neighbors
I guess one person's junk is always another person's treasure.
According to Alexis though, it's ALL Treasure :)
