Cellar2ful



So today Mrs Cellar2ful goes out on her daily walk through the neighborhood.  About 25 minutes into her walk she calls me and says, "Hey, there is a yellow kettle set out on the curb down the street".  I jump in my truck, drive maybe two blocks from my house and this is what I find.



Not quite on the curb. That is a private driveway on the side of the house, not the street. Knocked on the door, no answer. Crap. Tempting but with it being 15 feet from the curb, I'm not comfortable grabbing it and loading it in my truck. Taped a note on the front door asking if they are getting rid of it with my cell number.  Let's see how this plays out...............................

The bowl is in really bad shape.  Lot of crazing and almost rusted through at the grate straps. I mainly want it for the lid. It is in better shape than one I have.

Rescue it.  Based on its condition, it doesn't look like its current owner is using it.

Bold move if you do, but be prepared to wear this until you get out. IF you get out.

@56MPG- I belly laughed at that one. I would buy and proudly wear one of those shirts. 

I have driven by twice more checking and it is still there. I just can't bring myself to walk that far onto someone's property and take it.  Also, when I knocked I could here what sounded like a huge German Shepard barking inside the house.  I just picture someone inside waiting to release the dam dog if anyone attempts to take the kettle (bait).

That looks like a give away to me.  Maybe that's as far as they got with it.

Or maybe that's as far as they got before the owners let the Sheppard out! The other wheel is still rolling down the road!

If it still there when it gets dark, I'm having Mrs. Cellar2ful put on the ghillie suit and recon for an rescue (assault).  Que the scene from Animal House when Belushi says"Who's with me"?
