Lynn and I got home Friday night. What a mess ... we dropped mom off at the Charleston Airport and put her on her flight to L.A. Then 15 minutes after leaving the airport, Lynn's brother called and told us about the shooting at LAX! Crap! Mom doesn't travel much and Lynn was already worried about her, now we didn't even know where she was headed or when she'd get there! It was a long day as her flight was obviously delayed ... and she didn't get home until about 10:00 Friday night.
Anyway, we actually beat her home! Got here about 7:00 pm.
Now, to the subject of this post. We got up early Saturday morning and hit an estate sale. I ran across an old wrench and picked it up for zilch (stuff was going for $5.00/bag and we had a large, cloth shopping bag LOADED down). I started researching the wrench this morning and found out it's part of a tool kit from a WWII Jeep! These wrenches are bringing $50-$60 all day long on eBay! Ha! A week earlier and it would've ended up in your pile of junk. :D
