This Saturday, multiple parades of Garage Sales. I do Westgate.

Parades of Garage Sales offer an abundance of sales in a small area, but what they make up for in quantity they often miss in quality. 

I run into a woman I recognize, a regular at rummage sales, older, blonde, German, she recognizes me and introduces herself...

"We are both scroungers...scavengers..."  She says, in that thick German accent, and I'm protesting..."Upcycler...mixed media artist....", she's got the fluency and cruelty of the English language down pat as only a German can...

Despite the abundance of sales, only a few treasures. Pictured below:

A tall antique draftsman's chair, on which are..

A Yashica 635 120 format camera, adaptable to 35mm, and a pair of Jupiter Sr. Binoculars. Heavy for such small optics. All in all, not a bad day...

If you're in the neighborhood and see a glinting in the sky, don't worry, it's probably me keeping the neighborhood watch.
