Alaqua could maybe use the dog crate if no takers here.

I love this! It reminds me of the Free Store we always patronize when visiting a dear tiny remote town in Colorado. We always have things to donate, and usually pick up something too.

Yep, I've scored a mattress and a rug so far.
It all shows up in the "new posts" anyway, so as long as it says "free" we know to pounce!

The Free Box in Telluride, CO (it's in the center of town)
Visiting friends in Telluride, Colorado this week, I have to go by one of my favorite places in town ? the Free Box. You never know what you?ll find ? shoes, clothing, sports gear, even a flat screen TV from someone moving out of town and swooped up immediately.
It?s a great way to recycle what you no longer use, or to find something useful. I think every town and neighborhood needs their own version of a Free Box.
The Telluride Free Box ? Thriftify!

I've taken some things from that freebox in Telluride, and spent half a day on a free sofa next to the box, playing music with other random people.
Along the Appalachian Trail, there are many free "hiker boxes" located in the towns or stores near the trail. You leave something you don't want to carry on your back, and you take something that you might be able to use, including packaged foods. Good stuff.

So, if they can do it in Telluride, why can't we have one in Sowal...a perfect place to exchange all the stuff--much of which is perfectly good--left on the beach.
This makes so much more sense than having the beach police haul it off to the landfill. Who knows, if we got a little creative with it, it might become a real community attraction and lead to all kinds of unforeseen good things.....
