Garage Sales

     This week marked the end of the line. My clothesline broke over and over again. Every time I tied it in knots to repair the break, it broke again. Twenty five years out in the weather proved too much. It gave up the ghost.
      I went to Walmart, the store of last resort, and found a modern one. Well, it didn't break, but it certainly was not up to the task at hand. It constantly dropped and took my clean clothes into the dirt. What to do? I tried something new. Shopped on the internet and found a real line at Tractor Supply. 
      Next day, I went for the gold in the recycle world of garage sales. So many treasures I discovered. The last event of the day was incredible. Jan called me over to look at some long playing records. 

     I gave my collection up about a decade ago to a man on the crew working on my cabin. Low and behold, this was my old collection. In a heartbeat, I'm back in the game of sailing recycling!
