This is one gigantic yard sale that the Rotary Club hosts every summer. It is intense! They fill up an entire school-outside and in! Friday night before the auction you can go and preview what items they have. Then people line up early in the morning and when they say go... mad chaos ensues! Jeff and I had staked out two items: a double camping chair and a brand new juicer. So, we split up to ensure our purchases. As I was just moseying along Shari said, "Um if you want that chair you better start running!" Hahah so I did and just in the nick of time I was able to snag it! :)
| Bikes and Trailers |
| Books and movies and music like crazy |
| So many clothes... I didn't dare go there. |
| Camping!!! |
| Furniture |
| Andrew and Jeff coming back with a load of spoils! |
Andrew got this safe in hopes that there was a lot of money inside or something else really valuable. It didn't open so they used a sledgehammer. Haha
| Turns out the only thing inside were the instructions.... :( |
This year was my favorite 4th yet. :) Being married has 100% to do with that. Also, it was just really fun and it was like the first day that was actually warm that summer!
The day of the 4th we got donuts at my work, came home and played tennis, watched the parade and looked at booths, took a NAP, then went to a BBQ party and watched amazing fireworks. It was rockin' !
After the party we left and went to the beach to watch the fireworks. We had staked out a spot earlier so we had preferential seating. Also, due to our wonderful double camping chair- it was comfortably fantastic!
Great holiday! I love our beautiful country!
