Army veteran Tami , of Richfield, Minnesota, is moving her family into a new home in Vail.We always thought Vail was in Colorado.
Tami had a pair of large light-finished nightstands for sale and advertised them on Craigslist. Kathleen spotted them and thought they might look okay in a brown and pink room. We got directions to Vail, Arizona. Fifty miles later we turned off I-10 onto Colossal Cave Road, then Garrigans Gulch until we found this brand new housing development in the absolute middle of nowhere. There was a sign on the road that said "Cattle May Be Present." What is that supposed to mean?
Tami pulled up in her pickup right on time for the noon appointment and we looked at the nightstands. What do you think? They're kind of big, but. Tami wanted $150 for the pair.
Minnesotans all, we are not comfortable with haggling. But we did anyway, and Tami came down to $125, refusing $100. We loaded the car.
Tami has done service inTexas and Korea, but not Iraq. She now works for Raytheon, which is a big military contractor out here. She still has relatives in Bloomington and Kimball. She and her husband have two boys and two very large dogs. The new house has a pool and a big yard.
