Thanks to all for looking. I have been working in the daylilies today and the little scoundrels have been flying all around me and fighting each other like bandits. All I'd have to do to run them away is get the camera. The butterflies did come to see me today, however. And they posed nicely too. and the other one: kay

lol! I knew someone might comment on that but thought I'd wait and see. I suppose, in some ways, it appears to come down to splitting hairs on issues like that but I put myself in the place of a person having a garage sale. Most likely, it would not occur to me to check all the pockets of all the clothes (though it will now! lol!!!). A purse? Definitely. Anyway, it has, on many garage sale occasions occured to me that I am selling something for cheap that may very well have a greater value. Sometimes I end up keeping it and most times I say "oh well". I know if somebody purchases a treasure from me then it's theres. But if they purchase clothing with my money in it then it's obvious (to me) that it was meant to be part of the deal. It reminds me of the time I purchased a chest with drawers. It wasn't until we got it home that we realized the bottom drawer had what appeared to be some older family photos stored in it. I took the photos back because I knew it was an obvious oversight and they wouldn't want to lose their pictures...that's how I see the money too. I've got to admit too that if I'm out yardsaleing I would most likely not remember which house or where the house was located...it definitely starts to melt into one! But...if, I did, per chance remember, I would return with the money. but...chances of my remembering would most likely be slim! lol!!!!

Bjorn, it sounds great! What do you mean when you say "rendered stone"? Does that mean it is concrete molded to look like stone? Our barn was white wood, then in the 60s it got clad in white steel. It is still there. The paint has eroded alot, but the steel really has protected the old barn. My DH grandfather and grandmother were from Sweden. His name was Nels. He was sort of an SOB I think, but he died in the 40's. He didn't have my DH son until he was in his early 40s then my late father in law didn't have my DH until he was in his mid 30s. The generations are really stretched out. We are in our mid 60s and we have a daughter that is 26 and a son that just turned 25. Though I have a son in his mid 40s from a previous life, lol. In Iowa there were a lot of German and Swedish immigrants settling here in the mid to late 1800s I'm really off topic now hahaha

This has been fun, Sherry. I have been sharing it with my grandchildren who had a gazillion questions every time with every new picture-which is fine!! Today's comment from the five year old: "Caterpillars are so yucky ugly but they sure know how to turn out pretty!" Thank you for keeping up with this and sharing it. It was very special.
