What treasures were you searching for – books for the home library, that vintage t-shirt, kitchenware, perhaps a pink Christmas tree or an adorable elephant liquor decanter? Whatever it was, you may have found it at the Garden District Civic Association’s spring garage sale. Shoppers were out early on March 23, a glorious spring morning in the Garden District. The weather was perfect and yards were filled with all sorts of goodies waiting to be recycled and re-homed. Sixteen Garden District homes participated in this year’s sale and visitors from within and outside of the neighborhood perused the goods and visited with shoppers and sellers. Even though combined sales won’t be enough to pay for the new Mississippi River bridge as anticipated, it was great fun for all and we look forward to next year’s sale.
