Google Maps - Marquette

Google Maps was here last summer and caught our house. It looks like July or August -- based on the brown grass, leaves on the trees, and our neighbor's lilacs are done.

Bill Likes Hummus!

He said

"Is this what I haven't been eating?"

"It is like you are eating real food."

"I would eat this instead of chips and crackers"

"Can you make hummus that tastes like this?"

"Thank you for letting me eat so much of this hummus."

I just shook my head, yup.

Rummage Sale Season

I've started seeing signs along Third Street advertising rummage sales and garage sales--but only a few.

I'm going to try to post pictures of the things that we have in our house that we either got from:

1) a rummage sale

2) the curb-side drop

3) given to us

4) bought second-hand

We have A LOT of this stuff.

The picture includes:

• Fireplace - bought of the back of a guy's truck near Family Video.
• Chair (also called "the seat of power" because this winter it had the best wireless reception) - bought at a sale, the Vierling owner's house. This chair has a label on it and when I researched the name, it was made by the company now known as Ethan Allen.
• Side table - left over by previous resident director, not wanted by new resident director.
• Ottoman - from the Old Bank Building Antique Store. I covered it with some fabric -- it is really baby blue vinyl.
• Ceramic coffee mug - Goodwill
