Neighborhood Rummage Sale

Living out here in the country you quickly learn that unincorporated Snohomish County means that the post office thinks you live in Arlington, but the telephone company is sure you're in Granite Falls. But no matter, it's a great neighborhood with lots of great neighbors and where you can be invited to three or four pot-lucks a month.

So last weekend our local community organization, the Riverside Community Center, had a rummage sale to raise funds to continue restoration of the old school house where we meet. The building was built nearly 100 years ago so needs some pretty constant attention as well as capital improvements from time to time, i.e. a new roof last year. We had a lot of fun putting on the rummage sale and met lots of nice neighbors browsing all the "goodies" that were donated. And to boot we made a tidy sum to put toward our next project.
