450 mile yard sale update 10 aug

[olegoat]

it was hot out there today, but we ran a small portion of the sale. i would guess we went about 40 mile from home, if you have never done this sale, you have missed out. the outside temp guage on the truck said 94 degrees at one time. we took about 6 hours to do this, and we didnt stop at some sales.
the pics are of only a small part and this was at one location. this sale runs from gadston, al, to someplace in ohio now, it used to stop in covengiton ky.
the traffic in my small town is a snails pace. i checked some plates on cars, and they were from all over the country, texas and one from nj.....we may do a small run tomorrow, it was so hot we came home.

this is our take---the toy car=1.00, no remote
queen sheet set= 20.00
car ramps= 5.00
gun racks 2x4.00= 8.00
gonna try to use the racks for m/detectors

there ya go cappy

Thanks for posting the pics. IF I was retired and I am not...I could spend days if not weeks slowly ambulating down that long wonderful road. I'd be eating hotdogs, french fries, candied apples, popcorn, peanuts..just having a great time. Someday I will make a trip and go experience that great trek of American life.
