It's been a very eventful summer. Spent some time in the hospital, with blood clots on both lungs, but still managed to get through most of the 100+ houses the city has me cleaning out before demolition.

While I'm recuperating, I decided it was time to clean out the stuff I've accumulated from these houses over the last six months. The pile of "goodies has filled my garage, as well as a 20 x 40 storage unit. So, gonna be sending some stuff to auction over the next 3 to 4 weeks. Here's a list of the things I'm sending out this week, along with pics. Remember, I'm paid to rescue this stuff from the landfills, so the money made off the auction is bonus ;D

Well good for you. At least you had enough common sense to save all that great stuff. There is enough income for a nice detector or help pay those hospital bills.
I wish you a speedy recovery.
