AUNT CLARA'S AND OTHER DESTINATIONS
I spotted it out of the corner of my eye in the old audio paraphernalia section at a thrift store two minutes outside Alberta. So, in Saskatchewan. I don't know why I just didn't say that.

AND A KITCHEN SINK IN A SPRUCE TREE
“And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.” -Friedrich Nietszche
To the untrained eye, it may look like I picked up a bunch of random objects just laying around my yard, and hurled them haphazardly at the imposing Blue Spruce situated beside my house.

ROLLING DOWN MEMORY LANE
Looking back on my previous blog posts, I realize I write a lot of stuff about stuff.
Somehow, I feel an obligation to take stuff from where I find it, whether it be a thrift store, yard sale, or auction, and get it to somebody who really wants it. Sometimes that person is me. Okay, it's always me.
