No Room in the Inn

Last night we bought a queen-sized bed from some missionaries that are leaving Peru for our guest room.  I set out the single bed it replaced in our front yard so we can sell it. 

We had two guests come to stay with us today.  One of them we've never even met before.  When she arrived we pointed out the bed in the front yard and said, "Our house is full, so here's your bed!"  "It's very nice," she said politely.  "You're joking, right?" she asked with a bit of a worried look on her face.  "Yes!  We're joking!"  "Oh good!" she said, relieved.   Then she wanted a picture!

btw, the bed sold two days later.
