This young lady just graduated college in music therapy, but today she was looking for vinyl. She found the James Taylor record that she had been seeking at our sale on Mt.Hermon Way.
We had a total of 37 sales around town, and quite a few shoppers were using our maps to visit as many addresses as possible.
In the photo above, out in the street, you can find a classic drive-by shopper. How they do it, I’ll never know.
The socializing was, as predicted, a significant component of what went on. We had fun interacting. I wore my Groucho shirt, and a man came by who is a fan, so we both sang a chorus of “Lydia the Tattooed Lady.” (see below)
A shopper stopped by who said that she had been “stalking” me for years on Blogfinger, watching the show, but saying nothing. However, now she is revealed, so maybe we will hear from her again.
Jean Bredin came by and bought Raggedy Anne. She wanted Anne so that she could “nag” her Raggedy Andy.
A man, an expert on coin collecting said to me, “If you ever go into your sock drawer and find gold coins, please call me.” I didn’t tell him that I don’t have a sock drawer. Do you?
This lady from Neptune (the town, not the planet) was having a good time at the sales. Here we are comparing notes about Neptune garbage pails, gardens and where to park her car. Just then a space appeared across the street.
And this is Sam, a colorful 23 year old co-ed who was visiting Michelle her college friend in OG. See, I told you we had some demographic shifts in town; the youthful “Grover Underground.” And look Ma, no tattoos. Paul Goldfinger photo in Hero’s Park, across from our yard sale. Mt.
