The Flannery O’Connor Childhood Home recently threw another big party for the Savannah-born author’s birthday. The street fair and homemade parade are a few years old now, and this was the biggest turnout yet.
Seriously, chicken shit bingo, The Sweet Thunder Strolling Band, a collection of local authors, paintings by Panhandle Slim, lots of people dressed in O’Connoresque costumes, a dog that refuses to accept that his owner is inside a gorilla suit — what more could one want on a glorious Sunday afternoon in the spring?
I take all sort of photos in dark nightclubs, but I’ll confess to being a little flummoxed by taking photos in bright sun and deep shade … Anyway, lots of photos here from the event.
