I went to a community about half an hour away which is a gated community, and they were having a big community yard sale. I had always been a bit curious about the community, because they have a lake there..not Lake Anna. Really, their lake isn't too impressive but I didn't know that until I saw it. One thing that had that was nice was at the gate when you came in they had addresses of the houses that were having sales, and what they had, which allowed you to pick and choose the ones to go to..but other than a larger one by the community center, I didn't see much that floated my boat. I did buy one thing..but at least I got to see the community. Do you ever go to yard sales?

My dad and his wife go yard selling a couple of times a month. I just wish I could have my own yard sale. Oh well. I just think I could make decent money.

@snowy22315 My dad was adamant he would never have another one at his house, but maybe if I got Diana by herself she might talk him into it.

Maybe you could talk your dad and Diana into having one at their house, and you could add stuff to it.

We do not have yard sales here, what we have time by time are small open markets that sell different kind of things. We had a trip to the small lake Lugano this morning. It's a pretty lake.

It looks very pretty. I like the mountains surrounding it. Everything looks blue. The lake here can be gorgeous like that on a clear day. The first time I saw the lake here, many years ago..I was so impressed because the water was warm, it was blue, and the sun glistened on it like diamonds.

@snowy22315 - Those very small town around the lake are all very pretty. The air was cool near the lake.

Not anymore. Not only because of my physical limitations; but because I"m trying to downsize. When my husband was alive, I would send a box of stuff to Goodwill; and he would go to garage sales and bring more stuff home. sigh

I don’t go to yard sales very often, but I do enjoy them now and then—you can sometimes find really interesting things if you’re lucky.

Yes, I like the thing I picked out. I know where I want to put it, but I have to get everything off of that counter first, so it looks good.

@snowy22315 Nice, that’s good. It always looks better once everything is set up properly

I haven't been to a yard sale in years. They used to be alot of fun, but I find that alot of people sell things online these days instead of the garage sale thing.

That's true too, but most don't have time to list everything little thing they want to sell.

They have them pretty often in this area, the problem is most of them really aren't worth going to. There are a lot of kids clothes and toys, that holds no appeal for me.
