Great way to start the day after Christmas, discussing some of my favorite things.

In the middle of a rain storm my wife saw me on a ladder cleaning out a clogged rain gutter. She came out and said, “You shouldn’t be doing that kind of work in a $150 Columbia jacket, you’ll ruin it.” I said “Its not a $150 jacket its a $7 Goodwill jacket.” ;o)

Oh, and not to hijack this thread I’ve also found amazing treasures in dumpsters. But that is for another time.

Found a glass table top in the dumpster one day many years ago. Not a scratch on it. Now covers the $20 garage sale pure wood coffee table! Fits perfectly after refinishing the table. Looks expensive retail!
