Never fear, the adventure of the Willmore backpacking trip will continue. In the meantime, I have made my way to Avonport, Nova Scotia. Here, I will be assisting my mum in cleaning out the little house she grew up in, the barn that is falling down, the little barn she put up because everything else was full of stuff, and the garage, which is not too bad at all.

She did agree that a dumpster was likely a wise expense, as the little barn in the picture is stuffed dangerously sunken floor to mouldering roof from “treasures” that someone else thought was worth keeping. And that the racoons have just loved.

My mother and I have wildly different views on what is worth keeping, and what is simply old trash. I practiced the phrase “Just because it’s old doesn’t mean its worth keeping or valuable” countless times the last time I helped her clean up a house. Surprisingly, I have only used it twice so far. Of course, its only the second day as well.

So! For your entertainment, may I present the Trash or Treasure game!

One of these items is trash, and one of these is treasures, at least fit for the garage sale. Can you determine which?
