Our World, Highway 80 Sale

It was wet, and it was muddy.

But vendors came in trucks and trailers and vans 

and put their wares on tables and under tents.

This was part of the scene at the Angie's Auction site of the U.S. Highway 80

 World's Widest Yard Sale last weekend. It was the only site I visited,

 because I found so many bargains in such a short time,

 I had to leave before I took home MORE STUFF!

Jeanann's Wonderful Quilts of Color

If you have fabric scraps, Jeanann can use them!

Jeanann Syzmanski designs and makes these colorful quilts from scraps

 sent to her by friends from many places. This display was part of her booth

 at last weekend's World's Widest Yard Sale.

Quilted Cats

So what did I find at the World's Widest Yard Sale?

Lots...but I bought that cute, quilted cat potholder on the right.

 Many sellers set up booths beneath the pine trees out at Angie's Auction 

in Potter's Station. I never made it past that place! 

There were so many great bargains.

This year was the second for the yard sale that extends along

 and north and south of U.S. Highway 80 through central Alabama.

The Trumpet's Gate

A trumpet vine blossom dangles across the gate of a pasture

 along U.S. Highway 80 West. The late spring wildflowers are beautiful

 this year and well worth a weekend road trip to see.

 The WORLD'S WIDEST YARD SALE also begins today along Highway 80 

from the Georgia border west through Selma to the Mississippi border.
