Sticks, I thought we had the deal of the century. I just love your armillary! Why can't I find something like that at a yard sale? Hope he lets go of some more items. This was our yard sale find 2 weeks ago. There's a long story that goes with it that my husband loves to tell, but I'll just say the whole thing only cost $3.00! It's a fountain that came with a working pump and my DH just had to paint the wrought iron stand and clean up the terra cotta glazed pieces (they were covered with algae...yuck!) Next to gardening, we love cruising yard sales for more stuff to put in our garden. It' amazing what people will get rid of for next to nothing!
