144 Indiana miles of yard sale

The National Historic Road Yard Sale, which takes place along U.S. 40, gets underway today and runs through Sunday, May 31. At 824 miles and running from Baltimore to St. Louis, it is the longest continuous yard sale in the country. Indiana touts 144 miles of U.S. 40 — plenty of space for bargains and antique finds galore!

Antique hounds may wish to focus their search in the Wayne County towns of Richmond, Knightstown, Centerville and Cambridge City which combined boast more than 900 dealers.
