Pinto has a new (hardly used) refrigerator!

The house four doors up from me is owned by a ranching family from Salinas or thereabouts. Hardly ever used. They spend a week or two each year here and their kids come to the coast to surf every so often. Otherwise it's unoccupied. A second home. Nice folks from what little I've seen of them.
 
Either they are fixing to sell it or are actually moving in. A lot of remodeling, landscaping has been going on for a few weeks. Anyway, the remodeling crew had the fridge on the sidewalk today with a For Sale sign and a price.
 
In great shape. Asked the owner if he'd come down on the price some. We came to a good bargain. The crew had an appliance dolly on hand and we wheeled the piece to my back door. Tomorrow it goes into the kitchen!

6. I knew I was a grownup when I found myself in KMart one Saturday night, buying a new vacuum cleaner and being excited about it.
 
Welcome to the ranks of the fully adult, Pinto, and I hope the new fridge behaves itself for a very long time.
