Description

Colorized photo from 1939
Original title: Greensboro, Greene County, Georgia. Playing checkers outside a service station on a Saturday afternoon
Location: Greensboro, Greene County, Georgia

I liked the homey Rockwell feel to this. A bunch of pals, all together playing a game. Race doesn't seem to matter, and all are together. It had that simple town folk look. I had to look up Goody's, they are still around, they sell ice cream. Which explains why there were so many cups on the ground.

I'm not sure why that car is floating there. It's either some kind of floating model that was never discovered until now. Its on a lift of some kind. Or its just a bit higher over there.
