Yesterday, after our outdoorsy excursion, and visit to Henry’s camera store, we came home for a quick lunch. We noticed a sign on a post announcing a Garage Sale, to which DR quickly expressed: “Hey, they forgot the B”…

Of course, we went, I mean who can resist the start of Garage Sale season? There was a mannequin in pieces but unfortunately missing her arms, too bad. There was some really ugly paintings, some retro ashtrays on a stand, tons of books I’d never read, some sad clothing, 3 or 4 old style typewriters, knick-knacks of all kind, all with prices written on torn pieces of masking tape… wowzie… and then we saw this thing I needed to have. I asked the guy if it worked properly and he replied: “Yes. Course. And Chip too for $15″ to which DR started to look for the chip on the item, but I quickly informed him that he probably meant that it was cheap at $15… DR offered him $10 but the old European and his wife weren’t offering anymore bargain than what was on the price ticket…

I didn’t need it, but I really wanted it. I knew exactly where I’d put it too… and here it is, our latest addition to the Adventure Room:

DR felt all butch with the power tool cutting a hole for the electrical plug at the back of the bookshelf. It will be turned on for every party we will ever have in the future… fuck yeah!
