OPA 2 to 8 April 2018 shopping finds

I walked every day but Monday for about 30 minutes. Nice to get back into that habit. Need a hat with a brim that fits over beanie or at least my ear warmer band. Sunny does not mean warm and my ears do get chilled. Legs feeling the exercise. Have not yet walked it, but did measure the loop around park - 0.4mile. Going to have to measure up/down the main street to see about a one mile track to walk. 

Went shopping, started off window shopping only to get ideas for new home. Found a jigsaw puzzle that is world map. I can have fun putting it together and then use it to show where I've lived and visited. Puzzle found at The Co-op. They also had on sale large magnify glasses. Got one to help put the puzzle together and other uses. 

Saturday was spring cleaning side walk sale in downtown Sequim. That was my walk. Found a metal biplane to hang from ceiling along with my space shuttle for the Traveler's room at a reuse store. Checked out the local crystal / bead store. Nothing of interest there. Found world map earrings and a box of note paper at Forage. The Bag Lady store uses old wool jackets to make slippers. Need to ask if she'd be interested in the old wool jackets and suits I have. Maybe a trade of boxes of old wool clothes for store credit worth one or two pairs of slippers. Checked out the consignment store. Need to wait until closer to moving. Saw a big stuffed multicolored dragon in children's store, tempting. 

Looked in Office Depot for cork board and foam board. None exact size for puzzle map. Thinking mount puzzle on cork and then cork onto foam board. Then figure out framing. Must remember to leave space for color code explanation. White will be for places still want to see. Other colors will depend on what is available - seen box of pins that are white, black and red and another box that had green and another color.  

Have a great week.
