Dumpster Diving

I was leaving my client meeting today and I stopped cold in my tracks because I saw this beautiful old trunk in the garbage. This was behind a wrought iron fence so I couldn't really get a good look, but I saw that there was another little trunk inside it. If I wasn't going to another meeting, I would try to figure out how to take a better look. This is the kind of stuff those guys from "American Pickers" find all the time. Walking away was so hurtful.

  1. Oh my gosh! What were they thinking? Even if it can't be used as a trunk, it could have another life.

  2. Oh No! What a bummer that you couldn't get to it and rescue it. What a shame, I bet you could have done some excellent restoration of it.

  3. I got my dining room chairs in a dumpster! It was the classic "honey, get the truck" moment...

  5. It does look cool, but you can console yourself with the thought that maybe it was infested with bed bugs. LOL
