“What is that?” is the most common question the kids have asked while cleaning? This is the third installment. You can read the first two here and here.
This week we got a terrifying glimpse into the garage. We also continue to find gems in the basement and ‘Great Room.’
What Is That?
The answers so far include:
a car wash coupon with no expiration date, but no indication for which car wash 🙁
7-10 empty paint cans
MORE Christmas lights!
Some sort of specialized router table
Noah’s Ark
a 6th Nativity set
a picture of the original Gerber baby
every paper to every house my parents have ever built (seriously!)
a quilt given to my parents as a wedding gift
a 1960’s (?) stove top oven
a glass door shot out by a neighbor kid with a BB gun
a filing cabinet full of work contracts
3 sets of jumper cables
a never-assembled children’s rocking chair
a Princess Leia action figure
the RMS Republic and the Tsar’s Treasure
a Chewbacca action figure inside of a Star Wars star fighter
a twirling baton
a 1990’s expired fishing license
enough weather liner (for doors or windows) to circle the globe
3 lawnmower carburetors
4 refrigerators
a pellet gun
life jackets from before there was life
a broken wooden oar
the REAL source location for the Spiders of Mirkwood
and finally….
the pool table my parents bought me when I was 15 – a gift to shut me up! (For two years anytime I was asked “what do you want?” the answer was a “pool table.” Eventually the persistence paid off.)
Stay tuned for next week, which will hopefully be a video/picture version of “What is that?”
