Treasure in the Trash
Today, y'all will never guess what happened, I went to a garage sale. It was huge, there were clothes everywhere and in the back there were tables full of bits and pieces of stuff!!! There were buckets full of just miscellanious stuff.

My brother and I went in there and started looking around. Then I saw something! My eyes slowly read it, yes, it was a VHS that said Return of the Jedi. I already had a VI DVD but as I looked at it I became saddened. This precious movie had no cover. It was just lying there on a table. I took a moment of silence and then found a glimer of hope. I thought, "If this is here then maybe I can find more Star Wars stuff.

As I walked along a found a small Vader backback, and a ripped up Darth Maul lightsaber. I once more felt sad for the single bladed Maul saber. I thought, "How could peolpe just rip up such a special toy?"

I walked somemore and then what to my wandering eyes should appear? but a Luke Skywalker in Stormtrooper armor lying deep in a box. I was overjoyed and then I ran to it and embraced it (well, actually, I just ran to it) and then I showed it to my brother. Better yet, I have a spare blue saber and now he can fight Vader! Woo-hoo!

I was so happy because I had been looking for a cheap Luke forever, and now, admist the trash, there he was!!!!!!

I also found a lightsaber hilt, (with no blade) and I bought it too. I am starting a transformation experiment on the hilt. I will paint it and make it my own. I'll let y'all know how it turns out. And, we found an huge birthday bag with Episode I characters on it.

Has anybody else ever found treasure in trash? If so, do tell your stories.

May the Force be with us all! God bless! (like my new avatar? It is of 3PO as a Sith, for he is the ultimate Sith, http://blogs.starwars.com/huo2459iuS/16)
