So Appealing

It was not my intention to neglect the blog for so long. The last few months I've pondered how to return from my departure.

This for some reason reminds me of the joke: 'Why did the banana take off it's clothes? Because it had appeal.' Or something like that.

The photo mounted on poster board is damaged but coupled with my other find below (the bicycle) turned out to be free of charge and equaled a damn good find ;)

I sent Jake over to the owner to inquire of the price and when the man told him it was free Jake was very confused. The man explained to him 'Sometimes some things in life are free'. Bless his heart.

At the same store I also found the following and felt the need to spend some money seeing the owner had been so generous. He said the pieces were old. I figured the tub and toilet and figures could be used for some future project...

The two figures and the toilet/tub cost me $10. My mom says the figures are spooky though I insist they are just miniatures.

Sincere thank you to those who have joined my blog and showing interest. It really tickles my fancy!
