Rummaging

My neighborhood advertised for a multi-block rummage sale, so I decided that would probably be enough traffic to warrant the effort of folding and unpacking items. Luckily I had started early enough the day before, hauling in tables in the rain and marking items. I've only done one other sale, and that was pretty much a bust. I had planned to open at 8:00, and sure enough, by 7:05 the vultures were already circling. I was prepared with hot tea, two layers and a winter hat. I think my garage was located in the vortex of the morning's wind. The funniest moment of the whole day was watching a woman (in shorts and a t-shirt, mind you), equipped with a fanny pack, running down the street in order to get the hot items before other customers.
