My Mailbox for Yard Sale.....

I had a yard sale Thursday, Friday and Saturday of last week. This is my sign and my mail box. A lot of people laughed. It looked like a child stuffed in my mail box. I made almost 100.00. That will be nice when we go to Myrtle Beach SC next Thursday. It is the Shriners Convention and my son Gary plays the bagpipes with the Highlanders. Last year it was in Virginia Beach. I'm looking forward to a little R&R! Ryan is going with us. I can't wait!

Clara, that is so cute and a real attention getter!!

I would have loved to come to your garage sale. Even though I don't need anything, I am sure I would have left with something. =) That is why I don't go to garage sales unless I need something.

That's funny, Clara. How clever!

What a neat idea Clara - very eye catching

As you say, the cash will come in handy.

Enjoy the break

Hello my friend Clara!

I am so glad you are getting a vacation and hope you enjoy the beach. I have many fond memories of that particular beach over the years. I am glad you made you some spending money at your yard sale. Sorry I have not commented lately, been terribly busy, but always check your blog for a new post. Have fun, be careful and stay safe.

Cute Clara!! I'm glad you had a good yard sale. I love to go to those but I always buy things I don't really need it seems, so I'm trying to do better. I planned to have my own yard sale but haven't gotten to it this year. Maybe in the spring? It's a lot of work getting everything out there and ready to sell.

The trip sounds like fun!!!

Hi Clara!

I would have loved to come to your garage sale or even spent a morning with you waiting for customers.

The mailbox "kid" is so original, I would have stopped just to see what you had!

Love the mailbox and sign!
You have a son who plays the pipes. How blesed you are!
I love the pipes and so did my grandma. When we took her to a parade, she would follow the pipers up the street so we had to keep an eye on her.
