Latest Find

Many of you know I am a "treasure hunter" of sorts. Garth might prefer the term, "person who looks through the neighbor's trash." You often can find me scouring the neighborhood at dusk looking for things we can either use or I can sell on Craig's list.

I have in the past listed some of my great finds and/or valuables such as: Little Tikes Turtle Sandbox, Little Tikes Blue Race Car Toddler Bed, Two Step 2 art easels, a set of small soccer goals, 3 vacuums, anderondak chair, office chair, small yellow desk (Sommer uses it in her room...I told her just yesterday that her year old desk was from a neighbors trash and she was a bit disgusted), silk trees in wicker basket, marble top cherry wood plant stand, bikes, scooter, Big Wheels, high chairs, plastic storage shelves, Battery operated Hummer Ride On, Wooden Quilt stand, Dora the Explorer pop up tent, small trampoline...and on and on I could go.

But this is what I found a few weeks ago...one of those Sand and Water Play tables. The boys love it. I figure we will get some great use out of it and then sell it.

Did you pull that out of our trash? We JUST threw ours out a couple of weeks ago because the water part wouldn't snap on it anymore and bought a different one. You crack me up with your dumpster finds. One man's trash is another man's treasure!

No, but you know if I would have known, I would have taken it.
