Presenting another in my "cube" series.

Today’s Gratitude Item: Placing a bid in an on-line auction. This is a first for me and its rather exciting. I’m looking to get a hiking pole for camp later this year and said stick is on auction for $10.00 (actually $16.00 if one includes postage). This is not too bad when you consider that a new stick from the sports store costs roughly $100.00 – which is insane.
