I trust this email finds you on the back end of a wonderful weekend and the front end of a very successful week.
Over the past few weeks, I have found myself responding to more than a few inquiries concerning the status of the studio and our commercial photography. Just to let you “all know”, there have been a few changes but we are “Totally open for Business!” and the changes have been positive. You may not find us currently in the yellow pages but the good news is you can still find us on the web at www.dk-studio.com. Our email address is dkeos1@mac.com and our current business phone number is 256-527-2656. For any or all of your photographic needs, please do contact us.
It is aptly titled, “The Worlds Longest Yard Sale!” Every year individuals clean out their closets and stake out their front yards along the Hwy 127 corridor stretching over 690 miles from Addison, Michigan to Gadsden, Alabama. They ban together as communities, in groups or as individuals and over a four-day weekend they welcome the onslaught of visitors from the North and the South. It is a mutual exchange of cultures with a common goal; to look, buy and sale! As you transverse the country roads, you will hear a collection of dialects, be privy to incredible stories related to the individuals and the items they sale and see a plethora of items that only your grandmother could love. Most importantly, I think most come to see the unusual and socialize. It is Americana at it’s best.
The Worlds Longest Yard Sale has been in existence for 25 years, but this was my first year knowing about it, stumbling across a brochure while visiting in Mentone. Although I was only able to allocate one day to travel the back roads from Ft. Payne, Alabama to Cloudland, Georgia, I came away with the true feeling of what yard sales are really all about, community! More importantly, I came home with a few items I just could not live without!!
For ALL of your stock imagery needs or if you are looking for art for corporate or private collection (liked the image in this blog) look no further we may have exactly what you need. If you have an upcoming assignment, I am asking that you please keep us in mind!!!!
Best regards ………. dK
