First loves
I have a love/hate relationship with garage sales. There’s a lot not to like: the sudden stops and awkward parking, the necessary chit-chat, the perusing of someone’s junk laid bare for all to see.

Alas, the weather had something different in mind (a.k.a snow, and more snow, and then to top it off, thundersnow). But we got […]
