Road rescue.

Check this out.

Eugene & I were on a bike ride when we found these huge, solid wood benches on the side of the road. I knocked on the door of the house just to make sure they were free for the taking, and sure enough they were! We quickly biked back, hopped in the car & rescued this great find.

Here’s my brainstorm. I’m not sure if it’ll be too big for the kitchen, but it’s at least worth a try!

It’s low on the list of things to do just cause what we have works just fine, but I’m pretty pumped about the FREE road rescue! :)
