I LOVE garage sailing and junking with Pete! It is just one more thing I get excited about every Spring!!
We look through TONS of stuff that other people have decided to get rid of, and have seen everything from precious antiques to trash.
We have opinions about quite a bit of the stuff we find...what's good...what's bad...what exactly IS that?...
Once we held a competition: who could find the ugliest candle holder. We found candle holders made out of logs, lamps, shells, cups, dog bowls, turned wood, and an old stove. The competition ended in a tie.
Sometimes we have a goal. Right now it is to find inexpensive outdoor toys for the boys.
But the best part? We simply enjoy each other's company. A day of peeking into other people's trash to possibly find a treasure, but going home with the best treasure of all - each other.
Proverbs 3: 13-17 (New International Version)
Blessed is the man who finds wisdom,
the man who gains understanding,
for she is more profitable than silver
and yields better returns than gold.
She is more precious than rubies;
nothing you desire can compare with her.
Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.
17 Her ways are pleasant ways,
and all her paths are peace.
