    I have found what I think is an exact match online so soon I'll have a set of 6. Very happy. I really do like these.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Here in Iowa it is called the parkway, too. I like the idea of having it more organized, since then people would know which days to look and find more. But as mentioned, people here just put things out whenever.

    I think that would be a good plan too.

    Here it's called the "parking strip." There's no organized time for putting out "free stuff." Just shows up - with or without "Free" sign. City doesn't take it away either.

    I'm originally from northwest Indiana, near Chicago. There I heard it called just "the parking" sometimes. Probably short for "parking strip." In Iowa I've heard "parkway" generally.
