The Historic National Road  (US 40) yard sale wrapped up Sunday after a successful five day run of this annual event. Our set up was at Dunreith, a small town between Richmond and Greenfield, Indiana. Nearly 30 different vendors had spots at which to sell their wares.

One very popular set up was selling home made fudge and fruit cobblers. Their selling spot had a large tent with the product shelving underneath. Blueberry, peach, strawberry and other flavor cobblers were available in either 4×4″ or large 8×8″ aluminum pans.

It seemed like the cobbler stand was quite busy. One day Pat had to go home to bake more cobblers when they sold out of several. Sher and I purchased one of the large blueberry cobblers. It was a wonderful treat, we enjoyed it over a couple of days!

One of the vendors likely would win the “who came the farthest” prize. Griffin Leather Company is based in Alabama some 460+ miles from Dunreith. Tim and Ruthie  run the business together and travel extensively during the year to shows, festivals and other venues. They are true talented leather crafters.

Their set up  at the 40 Yard Sale included displays of adult and child size hand tooled leather belts. Tim on the spot puts names on the belts for personalization. Fancy rifle and shotgun cases and holsters for revolvers are also on the sale racks. Griffin Leather also makes beautiful leather gun slings. The business card has the slogan: “Our gun slings look so good your scope will be jealous.” You can reach them at their website.
