Look what we got for FREEEEE
« on: June 18, 2007, 06:47:41 AM »
It was a little dirty but after an hour of scrubbing and getting soaked by dirty, soapy water, it is fine. The crank even works. It was about a mile from here propped against a tree in someone's front yard with a sign on it that said, FREE








The patio table and chairs are a Samsonite set that I bought at a rummage sale last summer for $80.

 There is a pale blue and a smokey blue. The smokey blue is real close to the chair color. I have been using pink and blue colors out there so it fit right in. LOL

What a find...those umbrellas are pricey!!

BTW....What's the big idea of posting something I can't read?
Do I listen or should I be naughty?

Last night I asked DH if we should take the umbrella down as we were to get rain in the night. Sure enough the wind picked up and I got up to close the windows. I looked out and wondered if I wanted to go out in the wind and rain to take the umbrella down. I decided I didn't want to so didn't . This morning, it was still there. Whooee. One tough umbrella.

Looks like it was made to be part of your furniture set. Looks great!

Can't beat FREE. I'm planning a post about that very thing, only for us it didn't turn out to be so FREE.  ;)
