①After a week of rain, we finally had a comfortable and beautiful summer day outside. My husband was driving to a nearby town when my daughter found a yard sale. We saw old toys, a couple of guitars, huge piles of clothes and even a piece of furniture or two for sale. Best of all, we saw lots of smiling people talking, laughing, sitting and standing in the sunshine.
②Seeing all of this brought back memories of my childhood. Most of my clothes back then came from yard sales. My mum was quite a good yard sale shopper.
③I used to hate going to yard sales until one day when I saw some old books there. After that, I always browsed(翻阅) the books until it was time to go. Sometimes my mum would buy one for me. Soon a large part of my home library came from yard sale books because they were cheaper than new ones.
④Why do we have yard sales? We drop our old things and we buy “new” old things. But it certainly isn’t for the money.
⑤Another reason is that sales teach us something about life. We can’t really own anything here, after all. All we get is to have the thing for a period of time. Then it is time to let it go and pass it on.
