It was a cool summer August Morning. The community had been gearing up for the annual neighborhood yard/ garage sale. Cindy and I had been waiting in anticipation all week, for the Saturday to arrive. We were going to have a blast getting Bargains and Treasure's today. We did not have any one thing we were just looking for or needed. Just a day out enjoying one another's company, and making memories. Just spending the whole day with her, was going to be the best.We were not that long into our relationship, and I had recently moved in. She worked all week, so this was the first whole day together we would have with each other, since the weekend before. I guess I was wrong on not looking for anything special. We were looking for that special something that screamed a wonderful kinda love, to make our's. The perfume bottle was cute, we had recently purchased, but did not give that real loving feeling we have between us.
We headed out the door at 9:30, ready to get early morning deals. We visited a couple yard sales, and did not really find anything of interest. We rolled into the fourth one, and hit the jackpot. There was many eccentric items there and some great Native American Jewelry. As I browsed, I came across a long thin white box. It looked like at one time it had a bracelet in it. I opened it up; inside was a sparkly bluish purple glass Oregon Raindrop. I was Awestruck with delight at my find. There was also a silver wrapped crystal in the box. There was a 25 cent price tag on it. SCORE!!! We visited a few more places that day, but I really don't remember much after my treasure find. I had never seen a Oregon Teardrop before, and was dazzled by it's beauty.
When we arrived home, I sprinted inside with my find. I found my fishing pole, and took some line off it, to hang the Teardrop. I put it in the Living Room window, to catch the morning sun. It does not create rainbows, but it does glow a era decent Blue/ Purple color
