One persons treasures or another junk!!! As a Mobile teenager in the sixty's, a group of friends and I would sell old stuff at the San Jose Flea market for gas money. We would sell whatever we could scrounge up, you know treasures we would bring back from the dump after unloading our truck (those were the good old days when we could do that), basic garage sale stuff.
Well late that night as we were loading up I yelled to MOM from outside, "Do you have any old junk I can sell." Being the involved MOM she was, she yelled back, "You can take that smoke stand on the patio." Thanks MOM as I packed up the wrong smoke stand. She was talking about an wobbly 5 & dime item and I mistakenly packed up a family heirloom antique.
Several days later she asked where's the antique smoke stand? I replied, "I got 5 bucks for it thanks!!!!!
Exciting times at the Dixon house!
