Friday June 8th

Found a yard sale close by in the local paper, so I decided to mosey on over and check it out. When I arrived at 8:50 there were a round 5 other cars in the yard. Hmmm theres a jetski sitting out there! looked interesting. The jetski wasnt for sale and neither was the pressure washer beside it. (mumble grumble) oh well, continued on up in the yard, there were about 10 coolers sitting out there for sale, I'm thinking these folks either drink a lot or fish a lot. Walking on inside they had various pieces of worn unfinished furniture all priced too high. There were a few tables of outdated computer parts, 4 sets of golf clubs, and a few gun cases, nothing that interested me, so I was about to leave when I looked down and there behind the coolers was a Havahart squirrel trap. I'd been wanting one for a couple of years as I have several pecan trees in my backyard and the squirrels strip every single nut off of them every year. I bent down and picked it up and there on the bottom was a 3 dollar price tag. I promptly paid the lady the 3 bucks and walked away smiling. Those traps go for 40-45 bucks in the local home improvement stores are made of galvanized steel and last a lifetime. I made a good find there and went home happy.
