I can't believe my luck. . .Driving down a Missouri highway, minding my own business, lost in my thoughts, I begin to see something taking on some kind of form way up ahead. . .My junkin' instincts are on high alert. . . My foot gets a little heavier on the gas. . .I begin to shake my head as I get closer. . .a big smile forming on my face. . .
"One (wo)mans junk. . .Another (wo)man's treasure"
I thought to myself.
This has happened to me before--when I least expected it. . .but this time I STOP and CONSIDER. . .Did I REALLY want two more chairs to clean up and store with my other fifty or so? . .After all, I've been cleaning out and cutting back on junkin' lately. . .because I have found I already have so much and need to purge some of the possessions. . .Add two more? . .Where will I use them? . .Hmmmm. . .Wouldn't they go well in the log cabin?. . .or by the fireplace in the house?. . .Wouldn't Boo enjoy one there? . .What will John say when he has to unload the car and find a place to store them?
Do I dare load them up and carry them home?
OF COURSE.!!!!!!

Glad you stopped. ;)
Wow! What a great find. They are in such great shape too.
Nice! Even the color is great!
I have been keeping my eye out for new dining room chairs, so far no luck.....
You did good...love these!
Well, somehow I knew you wouldn't leave them behind! We are junkers, after all.

Dru, great porch chairs. You'll find someplace for them..Happy Tuesday..Judy
Of course one stops when there are good treasures to grab. You have space and buildings that would love a chair or two. They won't go to waste. Of course, you knew that!

Ha! Makes sense to me! =)

Hi, Dru. Love your 'find'!
Yeah, I would have stopped too...I was in someone else's car the other day and saw a roadside find. I said "Oh gosh if I was in my car, I would so stop and get that!" Strange look from the person next to me. Yes, yes, I am a trash picker, a curbside scourer, a dumpster diver. Love finding those lovely treasures someone else considers trash and unworthy of attention.
