    That is a good idea, Susan. I'll have to check into that ASAP, as I am not getting any younger. LOL

    When my sister was having a tough time coming up with money to pay the property taxes, she asked if she could have a yard sale in my yard..very busy 4 lane street. She had been gathering stuff and had tools, some furniture, antiques, plants/trees and clothing. Thank goodness she was able to raise what she needed. Then she donated much of what was left to a church organization thrift store run by volunteer with just a paid manager.
