Fun Photos from the Worlds Longest Yard Sale


Take a peek at the treasures gathered at the Alabama, North Georgia and Tennessee parts of Hwy 127 yard sale. Check here to see why we made an 8 hour road trip (one way) to buy flea market finds from 10 cents on up!

Don't believe the variety of things for sale? This angel of a horse named Honey was for sale for $500. I REALLY wanted her to come home with me.

Sock Monkey Treasure from the Yard Sale!



My first antique sock monkey! Just got back from the World's Longest Yard Sale. It covers 5 states, but we covered Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee. At the very last place we stopped, I saw an antique sock monkey stuffed down in a cardboard box. She's over 50 years old and her name is Pauline. I named her after the woman who owned her - it was a gift from her father to her mother.

Why Sock Monkey is oh so blue!



Sock Monkey is sad because Jeri is laid up for a month with a leg brace. She fell in her garden and fractured her knee (OUCH!).

Thanks and gratitude to friends and family for love and comfort - meals, running errands, groceries, outings for icecream. Not to worry, I am pasting from bed so papier mache will not be ignored!

Beach Monkey Bingo

Sock Monkey had a grand time relaxing on Tybee Island this weekend. He played Bingo, but sadly didn't win anything. Here are some photos of Sock Monkey soaking up the rays near the ocean playing in the sand. He came back refreshed and renewed!
