We are from a small town (population 607), so we love and appreciate small towns and small town festivals. While camping this past weekend, we drove though Martin, GA (population 311 based on what we could find out) and stumbled on their fall festival. What a terrific event and we thought we would share a couple of pictures:
Normally, there is no traffic here, but the sides of Main Street were covered with parked cars. And traffic was slowed with non-car traffic.
Isn't this just picture perfect?
Looks delightful. In the UK small towns often have Gala Days – usually in the summer months. They are always lots of fun.
Beautiful horses!

yes it is! I thought I lived in a small town now… really the villages here in CH are, um, well, let’s just say in MY town the main attraction is the post office. there’s a restaurant too somewhere but i can’t find it. but that’s it.
It’s what I love about living in our small town! Every year our town festival has the best parade. And yes, we do occasionally see horses just being ridden down the street. That picture is great!
Hi Herd
How big were those big dogs? Our Mom is trying to decide what breed they are.

Wow! I thought our town was small at 3k. Love this – it’s a perfect little slice of small town America.
It looks like fun! Our town is small but not small! No dogs in this post? A travesty…
My comment was supposed to say “not *that* small”!
Great shots!! Are those Clydesdales?
Happy Wednesday!
Woofs and Kisses!

Very lovely. Someday we hope to move to a smaller town. Our town used to be small but has grown so much it feels like a big city now.
The small towns always do the nicest things. Our Dad comes from a small rural town and they always have great fun and festive times. Those Big Dogs are beautiful.
