Greetings everyone! Linda and I recently returned from a day of shopping small. If you are unaware, there was a movement to shop small local businesses today (11/26). I caught wind of it due to a local commercial and thought I’d participate in it … it was either that or Occupy Wall Street (hehe besides, I prefer to put my energy into something that has a tangible point). Anyway, we ran around today (in the rain) and gave some love to some of our favorite local stores – Bushwhacker, Running Central, My Dog’s Bakery, Abe’s, Spotted Cow, Le Peeps and even Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. The latter was a slight reach, but it is owned by a local owner and surprisingly they actually had a sign reminding everyone of the day.
In the midst of all this we made a quick trip to our local Goodwill store to drop off some clothes. While tending that task, it occurred to me that this would be a quick topic to cover for my blog… not so much the trip itself, but for the reasons behind it. First, let’s start with a quick quiz. What do the following numbers represent? (hint, they start in 1985 and in 2011)
- 124
- 155
- 165
- 175
- 185
- 155
