So, after a bad experience at Jamie's Flea Market, we have had two good experiences. We set up at my brother Ezra's house for the annual Grafton yard sale. It was a major success! Our good friends, Tim and Rachel Turnick, went on a trip and let us use their house for the whole week! A week of yard sales in Elyria was extremely productive. We got to the point that allowed for us to get rid of our 10x30 storage unit. We went ahead and took a couple trailer loads to Goodwill and found homes for a few various other items. We were then able to get rid of our 10x10 as well and started saving all that money that was previously being "thrown away" saving stuff that was just going to be given away! (If we only could have known!!!)
Another blessing is that a friend has offered his property for us to park our trailer, for free, for a couple weeks. We are rapidly approaching our planned departure date! One exciting thing that has happened, is the near completion of our generator box. We wanted our generator to be able to be used in the box so we would not have to move it every time we wanted to plug it in. The hastily, yet soundly constructed original box needed just a few minor adjustments. The door that had to be screwed shut has had hinges added and a hasp mounted, but still needs a little work done. When we opened the door it revealed a broken wheel on the generator...thankfully not a big deal. The box has now been painted as well and vents, fans and an exhaust have all been added too. Very exciting! almost done!
