Deep-fried bagpipes serenade hillbillies who race in their underpants while drinking beer and eating peach cobbler … and a harmonica-tucked-in-the-pocket-of-his-overalls sheriff sits in a rocking chair as John Deere takes over the world. This is what I’ve decided would happen if you were to put all of the things found at the annual Candor Peach Festival into one of those giant claw machines at an arcade.
I had a free day on Saturday --- So I donned my overalls (I somehow feel more secure in myself while wearing them here than I do in Seattle. Ahem.) and made my way to Candor, North Carolina for midday merriment.
After a cup of homemade peach ice cream, an entry into the Plumbing Company’s television drawing, a healthy dose of slightly-saturated-in-fat deep fried ribbon fries, and a smile from the Peach Queen, I called it a day and drove back to the barn.
Life is fun times. : )
