Garage Sale..mean anthing to you? This is an American tradition, called "garage sale" from folks opening the garage to sell unwanted goods to the roadside groups as in this shot. This photo was taken before I had a DSLR, an old Minolta Dimage F100 was the workhorse then.

On the way home from a vacation my wife spotted this bunch and we had to pull in an take a look.   I do not do garage sales..she does but is quite discrete in what she gets.

Prices are generally low and are expected to be that way.  

Touted as the "world's longest garage sale", a country highway from the state of Alabama, into parts of Georgia, across Tennessee and into Kentucky is lined for close to 400 miles or more with folks selling their "junk".  The event is in August each year, with the road full of folks from all over the U.S.A. and beyond...call these folks "garage sale" or "yard sale" enthusiasts. You can find it on the net under "world's longest garage(or yard) sale".  I will not be there!  Some of my kinfolk might.  This shot is not from that event..just a small one that somehow makes the van we drive pull in and park.  I don't understand it...but again.
