What can't you find ? I got so tickled at Walmart... who would ever have thought you could buy a YARD MAN ! Not just any yard man but a HOT one. My HERO would not let me get one...but I was tempted ! She does have a big grin on her face. We went on a mini buying trip on Sunday...off to Columbus Ga. This is what we found. The day went by way to fast. The Historic area had brick streets and lots of WONDERFUL big Victorian homes... So CHARMING...We will visit again !
