After years on the porch, this chair faded from a jade green to a dull guacamole green. CHRIS FLOOD PHOTOS Here's to hoping this homeowner bought a new workout machine to replace this one. If this Green Day sticker is any indication, this stereo system is decades old. It's never too early to be preparing for Christmas. It's been 100 years exactly since the Cape Henlopen Lighthouse fell into the Atlantic Ocean. This homeowner decided that's long enough to hold onto this painting. This was a nice table – until the grandkids and dang baseballs came over. The cloth covering these old mattresses would make a fun wallpaper design. One telltale sign of a cat owner – furniture with frayed edges. It's hard to tell what's in the trash can, but the little dent gives it character. The spout for this 50-gallon rain barrel appears to be much too high. An enterprising homeowner could take this mattress frame, find a discarded mattress and furnish that guest room for all those summer visitors. With multiple generations now grown up, this basketball hoop was no longer needed. It seems a waste to throw out this pretty flower painted onto the bed frame. This property owner apparently got some new lamps to replace their old lamps. The person who lived at this house recently died. Clearly, their family thinks this is all junk, but if you knew the man who lived here, you'd know he could point to every piece and say why it was still useful. This likely left this house's kitchen smelling like fish fries and fried chicken for days after it was used. After years of procrastination, this homeowner finally got a new set of screens for their house. If these bikes had been put out two weeks from now, they'd be snatched up by the students from other countries working in the area. That's one way to clean a toilet out. Looks like someone got new awnings. It was a rough day in the ocean that caused this surfboard to crack. That's the kind of note that someone puts on a large television when they want it moved – whether it works or not. The interior decor for this home no longer matches white wicker furniture. Someone got a new set of mattresses for their patio furniture. Sometimes someone else's junk is not someone else's treasure. It's just a big pile of junk. Nobody likes throwing books away, which is why this property owner displayed them for people going by. This footstool appears to be as old as this old beach cottage.
