Since my last post:
Busy with garage sales, estate sales and open air markets. Finally made it to Allegan market and it was a good day for buying with a ton of vendors most very reasonably priced. Finally visited Saugatuck and stopped in at the Blue Star Highway Antique mall. Good destination with well over 100 dealers and wide variety of items. I liked a lamp with a metal model of a chris craft boat, and a framed photo about mid 1900's of a marina or boat shop.
Utica Mi has a small show 3 times a year and this year in July it seemed kind of sparse.
I hit the northern part of the World's Longest garage sale staring about 10 miles outside of Hudson MI and continued down to Van Wert OH where it intersected with the Highway 30 Lincoln Highway buy-way sale. Van Wert has a gorgeous courthouse,
tons of yard sales and dealers set up at the fairgrounds.
tons of yard sales and dealers set up at the fairgrounds. I hopped back on I-75 south to spend night at Sharonville area then picked up 127 again just across the Ohio River in Kentucky. Went as far as Harrodsburg KY. This is my 3rd WLGS trip and things have changed over the years. Many postings about the sale lament about places to stay, eat, gas etc. but I had no trouble finding a clean restroom, a fast food stop, and a motel room. Granted for the motel I went off the 127 track but I did see more motels on this northern stretch than before.
This house was about my 2nd stop along the way with 2 other sales by neighbors.
In case you were looking for food
and a drive by bargain !
