What a great weekend! The sale went off without a hitch. With the threat of storms each day, we kept an eye on the sky as we set things out for the sale. Kevin was laid up with the flu Friday so I forged ahead with the prep. Many, many thanks to Russ and Shane for the loan of tables and sawhorses.
Sale Day Saturday came with blue skies and a wonderful opportunity to meet the people in the community. What did we hear the most?
“I’ve been past here for some many years and have never gotten to see the inside the school. This is great!”
The best part – getting to know so many wonderful people. I can’t tell you how many people described themselves as ‘neighbors’. We feel so welcome here.
At the end of it all, Boo was exhausted from all the greeting she had to do and slept all the way home.
To end the day, the weather held out until we got all the leftovers packed up and shut up tight. In the hour after the sale closed, we got 1 1/2″ of rain in an hour at the school. Thanks to God it waited until then….otherwise, this might have been a very different story.
Can’t wait to see our new neighbors again!
