CATHOLIC RUMMAGE SALE - KENDALLVILLE

Ack! I took my camera to one of the best semi-annual events in Kendallville and forgot to take any pictures. I did buy and old bar cabinet from another era for only $20 and will post a picture of it later. It will look nice next to the antique radio in the dining room - and will provide needed space for storing dishware. Woo-hoo.

Tomorrow is Bag Day and Summer and I will be going. We have a lot of fun seeing just how much stuff we can jam into one bag - and then we give an extra donation so we don't come off as tight-wad bozos. It is just a lot of fun to make a game out of filling every cubic inch of the bag. And when you unpack it, people think you're a magician.

LaVon Jansen was there - I have seen her at most of the church's rummage sales, but didn't realize who she was until Doug Jansen mentioned her work there at a dental appointment for my grandson. So when I arrived on Friday morning, I kept my eye out for a genetic resemblance and when she smiles, I thought, "That's got to be the Jansen boys' mother."

Next up is Trinity Methodist's sale - another whiz-banger of an event and tradition.
