158:365 Trash or Treasure?


158:365 Trash or Treasure
This weekend was the 90 mile-long Old Dixie Highway Yard Sale that stretches from Ringgold to Marietta, Georgia. My husband and I took in a few of the sales. We spent a grand total of $5.25 and had a great time.
The Dixie Highway better known as U.S. Route 41 was built in the 1920’s to connect the northern states to Florida. It stretches from Canada to Miami, Florida. It was at one time a major tourist route and has been called the granddaddy of Interstate 75. Theme #336.
