May 15 - yard sale finds

The neighborhood sale we went to was kind of a bust- just a few sales in a big neighborhood- but I found a few things 

Potato Heads for $1

2 small Pampered Chef stone baking dishes .50 each 

And the dirt on them is from carrying these succulents in them 

The succulents were $1 a pot and this pot has  4 plants in it

Not sure of the name of these trailing ones but they seem to have little red flowers 

The Star Wars game was the big ticket item,  $4 but look at all the figures it came with.

The larger ones with red buttons shoot their weapons. 

I expect the grandsons will have tons of fun with this set.  

I saw lots of home stuff and clothes and furniture- but I’m not in the market for any of that.  

Did you yard sale today and did you find anything you were looking for?  I hope so!

May 14- 4th post of the month

Hello everyone 

I’m still here- just been busy with family things and Spring things.   

First I want to brag on this peony bush- it had 31 buds and some the flowers are huge! 

Sadly, peonies only bloom once a year but they really show off when they are blooming.  

2 of the grandsons are already out of school for the summer.  we visited the Botanic Gardens in our town and thought this driverless lawnmower was amusing.  

I think it works like a Roomba vacuum cleaner 

  

It was working and moving and apparently  it’s smart enough to just mow grass and not cut down plants.  

We also tried Geocache hunting for the first time.  

They’re are many hidden in our town but you do need an app to help find them.  

This tiny one was the first of 5 we found. 

See it? It was  a pill bottle hanging on a wire in a very full tree.  It just had a note and sheet of paper to sign when you find it, 

The last of 5 geocaches we found was the biggest and most interesting. 

It was filled with stickers and doo-dads.  It was on the edge of a pasture and had letters explaining the landowners animals.  

We didn’t take or put anything in the 5 geocaches we found but we did sign the logs in all of them.  

Anyone have any tips to find them?

I think this will be something I do with the grandchildren this summer.  

I’ve been reading and enjoyed this Kindle book 

The Teacup Conspiracy

And I’m in the middle of this series and really like it too

I’m planning to go to a neighborhood yard sale tomorrow

Maybe I’ll get some treasures I can share here- but who knows? 

Bye for now
