I found a new Salvation Army store on the way home from work and I seem to end up there at least twice a week. I also just discovered the Goodwill store, which I had never before been to. Big excitement. The Salvation Army store had this bag o' plastic guys under a table, in a basket, beneath a bunch of old, smelly toys. And I found it! I thought that my nephews might like to play with them when they visit, but Luke and I had a good time ourselves setting them all up when I got them home.
It turns out that, not only do I have an assortment of small cowboys, horses, and indians, I also have a teeny-tiny assortment of the same cowboys and indians, a teeny llama, a teeny donkey, and a teeny camel. Because everyone knows that cowboys rode camels. And indians... rode llamas? There appears to be a shortage of small horses and we had to double up the cowboys on the saddles, which Luke likes to call "Brokeback-style" but which I just call teamwork.

Your last paragraph, and last line especially, make this post A+ awesome.
I like to call it thrift store therapy...I love a great bargain and an unusual find!
