The annual Terrace block sale.

2 streets south of where I live this annual event was in full swing this morning. I could hear early vultures gather as early as 5 in the AM.

Actually, the Terrace sale marks the end of block sale season in the hood. just about every street here has one. It usually begins in mid-April and runs till Memorial weekend. Terrace Avenue is the grand-daddy of all the block sales here and features over 4 blocks of stuff from nicks to nacks to powerboats.

It’s quite the fun excursion on a Saturday morning and if you are a deal-finder you could score quite the bargain. Yeah, the vanishing point in the above picture is about 2 blocks.


Teeming with folk the usually quiet neighborhood gets just that side of wacky once a year. Below is a slide show of my impressions of this morning.


I of course went in search of food and came home to stuff my face with pork tamales and eggrolls with a little chillie garlic sauce on the side.

BURP!

BTW… pics were taken with my latest toy… er… equipment… not bad, huh?

Is that enough of a weekend read? Now go out and burn some meat, eat some watermelon… or something.
