I got a Honda Insight a year ago and was feeling a little smug about it with the gas prices and all. Then it got hit by some yutz a couple of weeks ago and is gonna take a while to fix. So...I'm in my back up car which is no gas guzzler by any means (Mazda Miata) but after 70 mpg in the Insight it's hard to go back. Told you that to tell you this... I'm thinking of packing in the estate sales for a while because of the gas. My rationalization is that I can spend the time on some refinishing projects. Things I've found at the estate sales in the last year, but haven't gotten around to. One is a trashed rattan bar I found not long ago and a couple of chairs, etc. Although there is that feeling that the one I miss is the BIG one, but C'est la vie.
