Garage Sale Pictures 2013

Well, the Garage Sale Gods were looking out for us this past Saturday. It really looked like it was going to rain first thing in the morning but it ended up turning out to be a perfect day. And what a great day it was!

We had fantastic exposure for the sale! The garage sale blog, www.goldentrianglegaragesale.blogspot.com has had a total of 4,035 visits. There were 282 visits on Friday and 572 for the month of May. We were advertised in/on;
