SUMMER FUN

Garage Sale Sign

We had a terrible thunderstorm with hail last Friday, which I wrote about in yesterday's Writers Plot post.  (You can find it here.) The garden suffered a LOT of damage and we were pretty upset about it.

Flamingo3 So on Saturday, when I started out on my weekly Garage Sale Hunt, I wanted to find something fun to cheer me up.

I did.

As I walked back to the car with my wonderful find, my husband commented, "These are the things that cause divorces."

Okay, so a pink flamingo is a cliche (and this one is so pink it's almost purple), but after the angst we went through over the garden (which is bouncing back, thank goodness).  I wanted.  I needed it.  And at 75 cents -- what a bargain!

Oh, you should've seen the one I had. Was expensive. $40!!!!!!

But it was lighted (HOT pink lights) and it moved! Looked great by my pond.

Alas and alack, my goat kept eating the cord and I finally had to get rid of it. And I was sooo looking forward to getting the lighted palm tree to go with it. But ... it wasn't to be.

I'll have to dig out the picture I have of it.
