Tis the season?
It’s time or it is suppose to be time to get out and shop for bargains at your local garage sale. Regardless what the Mother Nature says, Matt & Nichole Smith decided to do their sale this past Saturday regardless of large flakes of snow that fell and cold temperatures that left them huddled in warm weather gear.
