What's in the box

On a recent trip to Idaho to visit Uncle Russell and cousins, we stopped at "The World's Largest Garage Sale". It was a massive parking lot with rows and rows of vendors hawking all manner of stuff.

The boys didn't find much that appealled to them but they were intrigued by a vendor selling "Amazon Mystery Boxes". They even were allowed to pick out the box; which they spent quite a bit of time doing.


Their imaginations ran wild as we drove home. They were sure the box they had picked was chuck full of legos, based on the sound it made.


When they got home, they ripped it open with all their cousins. There was a smorgasbord of stuff. From 10 packs of q-tips (500 each. that's 5,000 q-tips) to four doggy doors to large men's underwear to vitamins (that's what sounded like Legos). It was a fun exploit, but I'm guessing they probably will not make their money back. Who knows.
