It was a great find because, although they have no monetary value, they have artist value. Some of them were postal stamped as far back as 1954! I think that is pretty cool! There were hundreds of stamps in this bag and I sorted them into categories such as patriotic, flowers/fruit, animals, Christmas and people. I will be able to use them for card making, scrapbooking and other projects. So, great find, Mason! I have always thought about keeping stamps for this purpose, but these fine yard sale people did all the work for me!
I also found this:
I have never been a history buff, but this struck me as very interesting. I mean, it's been around longer than I have (so it must be old!). It is dated August of
1977. It's full of pictures of the J-town flood and ads for really old movies. It was a pretty interesting read. The paper sold for 15 cents back in the day and I paid a dollar for a 32 year old paper, so I guess you could say it's a great investment to keep old newspapers and sell them three decades later for an 85 cent profit!!
I have a project to show that I am very proud of but I can not post it until the recipient receives it. That should be in a couple of days.
Here are some fun pool pics, it's finally getting hot enough to swim (not that I enjoy the heat or swim for that matter).
Some self-portraits that made me laugh:
What a goofy-goober.
