These were pretty much all free.
It was a really good haul this week. A guy had sooooooo much comic book stuff that he was giving away for free because he didn't want to take it back inside.
We accidentally ended up at an estate sale for a dead friend. That was kind of dark.
We saw a yard setting up a bunch of chairs and we were wondering what that was about. Turns out, it's a Burner Peace Love & Ice Cream yearly party where they play music and have about 70 of their friends over. We didn't know the people there, but they knew of MakePeace Manor.
Spanker Drive is a funny name for a street.

BACKSTORY: Got up around 6:35AM, made it out driving by 7:39 AM and went out until 1:28, and then again from 2:07 to 2:36 for a total of ~6 hours. Spent $143.15 plus ~$5.53 gas for 64.3 miles of driving (25.8 mpg @ $2.22/G), for a total cost of $148.68. We drove to 65 yard sales, stopping at 39 (60%) of them. We made 115 purchases (150 items) for a total estimated value of $1,400.57, leading to a profit/savings of $245.74. So in essence, we multiplied our $148.68 investment by 9.58. (Also, if you think about it, the profit counts for even more when you consider that we have to earn $1,400.57 on the job, pre-tax, in order to take home the $1,228.72 in cash that we saved. How long does $ of disposable income take to earn, vs the 6 hrs we spent here?). Anyway, this works out to a *post-tax* "wage" of $245.74/hr as a couple or $122.87/hr per person.

177 / 365 - back to basics
(on black)
Don't have time to write anything witty, snappy, funny or pimpy. Only 4-letter words, because I'm recovering from the complete 365 wipeout described in one of the previous 365 shots (two shots ago, to be precise).
At the Heaven entrance, a guy sees another guy with a beard and recognizes him as Ansel Adams. He asks St. Peter: "Is this Ansel Adams? He's not dead yet!". To which St. Peter replies, "Oh no, that's not Ansel Adams. That's the God. He sometimes thinks he's Ansel Adams, but we don't pay much attention to that." I think Henri Cartier-Bresson is next on the God's list.
Also, paying hommage to the Pimp, who has finally completed his 365 (officially now, signed, sent, delivered and done). Long live the fedora!

Back Pain Stretches, back pain causes, what to do for back pain
There are many back pain causes - however, identifying causes is vital to the long term resolution of the problem, and your doctor or Chartered Physiotherapist will help you figure that out. More often than not the underlying problem has been present for some time before the pain evolves, or the problem is aggravated by a stressful movement or situation resulting in pain.
I'm not done there yet!
I happened to catch this one shot of this tern flying over.
Forster's Tern, Sterna forsteri in winter plumage
Over Swan Cove Pool, Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge, Accomack Co, VA
