I survived the longest yard sale!
#1
First let me say my DH is NOT a yard sale person - and I will only go if there's furniture. But per HIS suggestion we went to the Hwy 27 (or 127) yard sale that went from Ala. all the way up to Michigan. We left Thursday afternoon and drove to Crossville TN then started making our way back thru Ala then home to GA. We left home with no motel reservations, no idea where we were going to stay and really no idea of where we were going. I saw two featherweights (one was priced at $425 and the other was $325) but I didn't get one because I don't really know anything about them. I was so mad at myself for not doing some research before I left. I did get a treadle sewing machine base that I plan on making into a table and a little old wooden ironing board that I think I'll clean up and drape some of my quilts on. But what I got that you can't put a price on is time with DH and no stressing out about the raffle quilt I'm trying to get done for my DD adoption fund.

Glad you had fun. We went a few years ago and enjoyed it. You are right about the time with DH. The only time I really know my DH is listening to me is when we are in the truck going somewhere, no tv or other distractions.
