20 Summers

I had been an engineer and an entrepeneur, but I changed careers to become a teacher like my wife. Around that time, as a hobby, both my wife and I enjoyed searching for treasure at local garage sales and selling some of our ill gotten gains on eBay. One summer we went on a vacation to Michigan to visit my family. For giggles, we decided to try visiting some garage sales in the area. While driving around, I got the idea to buy a motorhome and spend summers travelling the country searching for garage sales, making new friends and finding buried treasure wherever it might be hiding. That was twenty summers ago and this is a collection of stories regarding our summer adventures.
