SIXTY-THREE!!!!!
Yes, today is my birthday.
Yes, send good wishes.
Yes, give a gift to someone who needs it.
Chucks took me to an estate sale yesterday for a present.
The couple in their nineties moved into a new home and left treasure after treasure behind.
FIVE sheds!
Bike wheel.
Two buckets.
A solid copper box with lid.
Really rough shape.
You can read about the Wofford professor HERE.
It is interesting to us because Dr. Clinkscales retired to a house on the Wofford campus renamed the Kilgo-Clinkscales House.
Chucks and his father were named after Rev. Kilgo.
And Chucks' father attended Wofford.
I think the atlas may be a keeper because of the campaign poster glued to the inside of the cover.
It's older than I am!
1880's to 1950's.
Mostly children's books.
Definitely a keeper.
Calling cards from ministers.
I do remember when the preacher came to call.
One Coca-Cola.
"Be really Refreshed" is the 1959 slogan.
One Aiken Lumber. (Notice the telephone numbers.)
A Band-Aid tin.
Each photo has the name and the date on a label on the back.
I could not leave the children behind.
The adults I left to fend for themselves.
However I might slip back over Saturday afternoon to see if any others need rescuing.
In the South it is the ONLY mayo fit to be eaten.
Okay, so I am another year older and probably a bit meaner.
But I am still out junkin'.
That's all that matters.
Plus most of the stuff I buy is older than I am.
See y'all!
