The Bernal Heights Hillwide Garage Sale last Saturday was a lot of fun, and your Bernalwood editor spent many contended hours browsing for crap bargains and chatting with neighbors.

Along the way we met a glamorous Bernalese couple doing Hillwide in classic style by pulling a little red wagon equipped with two large vats of sangria.  The sangria was given away to anybody who wanted some, while the rest of the wagon slowly filled up with all the treasures accumulated during their wanderings. Bravo, and well played!

Quantitatively, the Hillwide elves tell us that this year’s garage sale was a smashing success:

We had ANOTHER record breaking event!

149 homes officially participated (with lots of free riders).

We raised $3,810 for the Bernal Heights Neighborhood Center, which is $705 more than last year. And 2x more than the previous year.

Thanks for all your support!
