Those two Little Brothers Cracked me Up.
<3


The Little Guy on the Toro, with his little Beanie Baby Bear, was Quite...
The Little Man!!
: )
He and I struck up a Friendship.
: )

He came, and sat down beside me... at the outside 'Cashier's' Table.
: )
He climbed in the chair, across from mine, and began a Long... conversation, while his Parents shopped.
: )

He told me he was just Graduating from Kindergarten.
Told him... How Proud He Must Be...
with
that
Major Achievement!!
: )
He said... he was happy, but, sad too.
I... asked him why, he was sad.
He said...
"I'm afraid I won't see my Friends, anymore. We'll all be in different classes."
: (
Told him, 'yes... that might happen, and.... it might be a little tuff, but... on the 'Upside', you'll also make 'New Friends'.
: )
He agreed, then...said...
"I'll get to see my Friends at recess...and at lunch!!"
: )
<3

Yes... Indeed.
<3

He asked me... which 'classes' I liked in Kindergarten, 'music', 'art'... or 'gym'?'
Told him... I'd have to think about that, for a little bit.
Hmmmmmm
???
Told him... "I'd probably choose 'art'."

He replied...
"I don't have to 'think' about it. 'Gym'."
; )

Hahahahahahahaha!!
Love It!!
Priceless!!
: )

These 'Sales' are a lot of work.
but...
such 
'Good Work'.
; )

People... are Amazing, if you take a 'moment' to 'listen' to them, 'hear' them.
; )
<3

'The Journey'

'Grandma'... when possible, doesn't like to sell things, that aren't spiffed up, a bit.
; )
We can't clean everything, but... I learned from an early age, with Horses, Ponies... and Mules, they sure sell better, 
find better 'Homes', when they're 'Cleaned Up'...
a little.
<3
{The Garage... items.}

This 'Home'... is Clean, Clean... Clean.
: )
Most things are New... or, Nearly New.
