Southern Oddity

This is a picture of a Thomasville Furniture truck parked in our cul-de-sac. What was it doing there, you may ask?

Well, some young lad came to our door and asked us if we needed any furniture? We said "no, thank you", and commented to each other that the whole situation was very odd. But then we saw our neighbor, Christy, outside checking out the goods in the truck. Steph told her that we thought the whole thing was shady, but Christy said it's actually quite normal for these parts and we just feel that way because we're from "up North". Apparently all sorts of people bring their trucks around neighborhoods and sell stuff like this-- landscapers, furniture retailers, etc.

Sometimes I think I live on a different planet.
