Inman Park Festival

Had a great time this weekend at the Inman Park Festival. Saw so many old friends I hadn't seen in quite some time.

A few of us were hanging out and I brought up the sifter thing on the tracks and we got into this big conversation about it. A couple of friends had noticed it too.

In a crazy twist, an older lady that was standing behind us joined in the conversation.
She told us that she had lived in that neighborhood for 45 years and that she remembered the lady that built the thing. She said she believed her name was Louise "Lou" Taylor. I was blown away. Finally someone with some serious information. She took my number and said she would talk to some of the other long term neighbors and get back to me. She said there was quite a story attached to that thing....sadly she had to leave.

Louise "Lou" Taylor.

What started out as a very scattered idea for a blog about my daily life has almost completely turned into a blog about this thing that Louise "Lou" Taylor made.

We hung out for a couple more hours at the festival and headed home.
