We were out WAY too late last night, but for a good cause: we got to see Jay and Brad’s respective bands play out @ Exit 6C and had a rockin’ good time. I got to sleep at about 4:30. At 6:00, I had to get up and go to training…seems I needed some additional role-playing experience since I haven’t sold any AT&T landline products this month. Meh.
Anyway, part of the reason I was up so late was because I did a little work once we got home, including placing our Estate Sale signs out and about. Might as well get it done while the roads are calm, eh? Well, we had an unintentional side effect with that. Seems the fact that no time was displayed caused Indi to get awoken at 7 AM via doorbell due to the fact that the signs had no time informaiton on ’em. Whoops.
Anyway, it was a total gangbusters day! We sold a ton of stuff. The master bedroom is completely empty and all other rooms are seriously low. We raised more than $3,000! So excited!
Now we are staying with Indi’s folks down the street. I just got the Wi-Fi running so I wanted to check in. Tomorrow’s another sale day, hopefully just as good.
Rhys Martin was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1981. In 2009, he sold everything he owned and left the country, living out of a backpack for ten months. He discovered a passion for photography while traveling throughout Southeast Asia and Europe.
After returning home, he looked at his home town and Oklahoma heritage with fresh eyes. When he began to explore his home state, Rhys turned his attention to historic Route 66. As he became familiar with the iconic highway, he began to truly appreciate Oklahoma’s place along the Mother Road. He has traveled all 2,400 miles of Route 66, from Chicago to Los Angeles. He has also driven many miles on rural Oklahoma highways to explore the fading Main Streets of our small towns. Rhys has a desire to find and share the unique qualities of the Sooner State with the rest of the world.
Cloudless Lens Photography has been featured in several publications including This Land, Route 66 Magazine, Nimrod Journal, Inbound Asia Magazine, The Oklahoman, and the Tulsa World. In 2018 he published his first book, Lost Restaurants of Tulsa.
Rhys loves to connect with people and share his experiences; ask him about enjoyable day trips from Tulsa, locations along Route 66, and good diners or burger joints along the way.
