After we will go to Unclaimed Baggage. Lost luggage baggage. Not the emotional kind. This is like a Goodwill, but it is stuff people lost on their flights. Semi famous in the area. Claim to fame? It was on Oprah once. For Scottsboro that is exciting. Trust me, excitement does not abound in the Boro, but Unclaimed baggage is fun.
You get to go through other peoples stuff and bring it home with you. A lot of fancy label stuff. Like a Ralph Lauren Blazer for $30.
So many people have baggage. Here is my relationship Pro tip. Find someone whose baggage is a small carry on instead of large suitcases overflowing. I am here to help. Unclaimed Baggage could be a useful relationship metaphor...
Just saying.
