Must be a 'French' or 'Valley' thing!! There's many an item in my house that was picked up in someone's garbage as he went by on his way home from work...I actually have a few pots and pans that came from the 'dump' in Frenchville way back when they used to separate the metal out and pile it up in a small field...those were the good old days!! haha! But why not?! It's just another form of recycling which is good for the earth and our budgets, too. Great idea for the boys to play inside with their trucks in the 'bean' quarries! The black flies are not out up here yet...too chilly...but the moose are everywhere! I think the flies are the safer of the two pests! I read that if you spray listerine (or equivalent) around where you sit or play, it repels mosquitoes, so maybe it would work for the gnats, too! Have a nice summer!

Kate gets too crazy with it, as you can imagine, so mostly it's put away these days. I want to check out that Goodwill $5 thing . . . our SalVals around here are not so good. I think it's the area.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
