The great, late Memorial Day garage cleanout

Okay, ya'll - we were busy playing with grand kids on Memorial day, so of course we had to postpone the family tradition of cleaning out the garage on this holiday. Plus, bulk garbage pickup starts Monday so this was the weekend to get 'er done.

Turns out we didn't have all that much for bulk pickup (large objects only, please) but we did have a lot of stuff to pack up and take to Goodwill; mostly remnants of a long teaching career. Lots of toys that our grand kids have outgrown; lots of household items that were just gathering dust.



I do have a bit of bad news for the boys -- the little Moon Buggy is no longer with us. We laughed about Jerichos's first trip down the driveway on the buggy. I don't know whose eyes were bigger - his or ours as we saw him bearing down on the cars in the garage!

And I have to go on record that Mom did the majority of the work; I mistakenly took full credit for the clean up on Facebook, which I deeply regret.

Unfortunately, we only were able to deal with two out of three shelves in the garage. There is another one that might need a teensy bit of attention. Next Memorial Day. I wish.
