A yard sale in a cemetery?
)
June 7th, 2010
Driving northwest from Scranton toward Binghamton somewhere on Route 6 (maybe) last Friday, my son and I were amazed to glimpse a hillside cemetery where tables were set up and a sign said “yard sale.”
We entertained ourselves with speculations for the next several miles.
Can anyone shed light on what we saw? Is this a relic of some sort of bizarre colonial custom or a modern trend that casts off all the traditional sensitivities about burial grounds? A one-time thing or the latest in entrepreneurial innovation?
What could they possibly have been selling?
