Starting the first Thursday in August and running until Sunday, The Longest Yard Sale,or as it is also known, the 127 Sale, is a a unique event. The sale begins in Gadsden, Alabama and continues to Hudson, Michigan. It goes from town to town for 675 miles. People set up booths in their front yards, open fields, parking lots, town squares, and just along the side of the road. There is stuff, and more stuff to look at and buy. Much of it is junk, but you can also find some bargains too. And, what do they say, "one man's junk is another man's treasure."
