This is a partial list of items my husband, Nat, with almost no help from me, has acquired at the dump, more properly called the waste transfer station, in Deep River, where we have lived since 1992: Wicker furniture, yard umbrella, trash-cans, recycling bins, two or three coffee makers, silver bowl engraved with "Oak Ridge Golf Club 1925 Ladies Putting Contest," British landscape painting, dozens of stereo speakers, stereo electronics, audio turntables, vacuum cleaner, microscope, chemistry lab equipment, electronic test equipment, Renaissance Revival loveseat, antique dresser with marble top, various books, various LP records including all of Bob Marley's albums, roof shingles, lumber, scrap wood, bottles of wine (not very good), two enameled cast-iron Christmas tree stands, several cameras (some broken), camping equipment, an air popcorn popper in the original box, several folding clothes-drying stands (which the attendant began saving for me), a washing machine, latex paint, dollhouse, doll chest, and someone's wedding album, which we looked at somewhat wistfully and then took back.
