Off the Grid

Buddha approves! Using a push mower is not so bad after all. First, I de-dog and pull the dandelions (usually not in the same day). We leave the clipping on the lawn to work as a fertilizer. I have cut down to watering the lawn twice each week (other areas less!), therefore we only need mow once or maybe twice each month.

Yummy color! Eye spy with my little eye something beginning with "l".

Nice table! Nice rug!

Wow!

Book plate prints ready to go in contemporary glass frames, $30 each or three for $20 each.

Fun and groovey stuff!

Paul McCobb chairs swept up in an instant! The tulip table is in excellent shape!

Too good to be true! Teak and laminate desks $200 each! Delivered!

They are in great shape and really well made. I really wanted them for our fantasy home office! I'm having a pity party over these!
