Please welcome - Skateboard Guy!
We have just survived two days of unlimited yard sales, thanks to the folks in Bushkill Township, Northampton County, PA. Now I've been to many community yard sales, but this had to be one of the best I've ever experienced. My mid-week request for information quickly returned an exhaustive list of locations, times, and types of items for sale - including maps!
On Friday, I actually lost count of how many houses we visited, although most of them were walk-throughs with no purchases. This is partly because I blew $40 at the first location of the day, on a much-needed cedar chest that now sits in the living room and holds all my yoga blankets and pillows. Friday's scores seemed to be all household stuff; in addition to the chest, we came home with a stone plate for baking pizza and a lightweight, Joan-sized folding garden chair.
Still, somehow - I felt incomplete. We were not done yet.
So on Saturday morning, while Randy stayed home and practiced guitar for an audition later in the day, I hit the road again. Discovered that for every sale on the list, there were two "unadvertised specials." And that's where we found Plastiqueville's newest citizen - Skateboard Guy! Just in time for the Tokyo Olympics.
Please note Skateboard Guy's size, relative to Mr. Tiger Pants (who wishes I would impose some limits on the newer residents).
