Argenta Yard Sale & Cook Out

Hey guys, are you as exhausted as I am???  I heard  reports of some nice profits from many on the neighbors, bravo Argenta! We also had a nice turn out at the Cook-out . BUT, from all of this I have learned one thing, I am too old to do a Yard Sale & a cook-out/Block Party on the same day. My vow to you Argenta, is never again! We will have separate events on separate week-ends. Promise.
Hope you all are catching up on some much needed rest, alas I am at work. See ya' at Boosters meeting on Oct 7th!

Yard Sale

I am sorry I haven't posted more this week but we have been swamped getting ready for the yard sale & cook-out tomorrow. I just wanted to take a minute & wish everyone good luck with their sales, hope you make a bundle! Then once you are cleaned up then come on over for a beer, a brat, a burger & some fun, to the back yard of Bob & myself Ragsdale's back yard @ 216 West 6th st.
Good luck Argenta!! See you Saturday!
