SCORE!!

For a typical man, Keith is not one to go shopping unless it is at Cabela's, Bass Pro or Sportsman's Warehouse. But the other day he arrived home after a shopping trip at the Mall with a $600 aluminum Ping pong table!

"WHAT you went shopping without me? You went to the Mall without me? You got a $600 PING PONG TABLE??? I thought we always discuss when we buy big purchases! What were you thinking?"...

That would probably be my reaction IF we lived in the Lower 48 and not live in Galena! Thankfully we live here and I know there is no such thing as a Mall in Galena... Well there is not a mall in the sense that there is no Sears, J C Penny's, Cato or any other stores of that nature. But What we all call the mall here is the Garbage dump. But as the saying goes "One man's trash is another man's treasure!" And this time we scored big on a aluminum ping pong table that when you look on line it is worth $600. And all Keith had to do was raid spare parts from another table that was thrown out as well. Some times we find nothing but trash but sometimes you SCORE!!! Now all we need is a net! hehehe Keith is very proud!
