It certainly isn't every day I receive an invite in my inbox to come on down to the south for a 5 day road trip adventure!

GM 'found me' and I'm teaming up with 5 other DIY bloggers to take in The World's Longest Yard Sale. The trip starts in Michigan through Alabama and our mission is to collect for a family in need with a surprise ending.

But we're gonna have a little fun. [Smile] It's a common thing for two junkers to fight over one must have junk artifact like it's life or death, so Brittany and I are teaming up as Junk Warriors. Isn't this just so Dan and Jayish?! [Big Grin]

I fly out July 31st and won't be home until Aug 5th. Lined up an awesome house sitter so she can guard my macs. [Rolling On The Floor] Seriously... when we leave the door wide open to the house by mistake after going into town, (common) first thing I shout to Cody is, "Go see if the macs are home!

The announce post with a goofy video segment can be checked out at Funky Junk

Think they'll notice I'm from Oh Canada? Guess it's time to toss the eh for y'all...

(I can't get these pictures to show in preview... if they don't work, they're on the blog)

Just curious... is the png extension the issue with the photo thing?

I think the problem is the apostrophe in the file name (World's). But here ya go......

Donna ..I love your 'Red Green' attire.

If you have some time when you finish in Alabama, come on over to Hotlanta for a visit.....

WOW....Looks like fun [Smile]

The png works but I think the problem was caused by spaces and ampersands.
here is your other photo.

If it's junk you're looking for you might want to drop by my place when you're in Tenn...everything I got is junk...it will save me a trip to the dump.
