Yard Sale!

The yard sale description Mike posted online:

Yard sale at my place tomorrow: Saturday, August 4th, starting at first daylight (we'll be awake all night getting it together). Come see what horrors two geeks can amass and eventually sell (in this yard sale, of course) in preparation for a trip to a far-away land of bears and snowmobiles. We will have a crap-ton of damn fine-looking clothing for sale (we have good taste, but precious little suitcase space), many, many honestly geeky books (including subversive/ political/ revolutionary/science-fictionary insanity, and a few boring(i.e. "good") books as well), toys (including a rocket!), games, furniture(bookcases, desk, shelves) electronics, antique cameras, sporting goods, picture frames, a cute little tv/vcr, a musical instrument or two, cages for rabbits/ ferrets/ chinchillas/ rats, some good shoes, a well-loved motor scooter, some pretty things, and if there's any left when you get here, free coffee! Shockingly low prices for everything, I promise.

We had around 5 people show up, and made $35. It was scorching hot at 9:00 am, so I'm not surprised most people decided to forego stopping at our yard sale. Still, it was worthwhile to separate what we are going to give away/ donate from what we are going to store or take with us.
