At Gascoigne Bluff on St. Simons Island, picnicker reads sign saying the county commissioners “ask” people not to bring alcoholic beverages to the park. “That’s nice,” says the man, as he pops open a beer. “They just ask. At least, they don’t prohibit drinking.”

Bumper sticker in Atlanta’s still-bohemian Little Five Points area: “God Bless the Freaks.”

About the author Keith Graham: Keith Graham lives in Atlanta most of the time and on St. Simons Island on Georgia’s coast the rest. Like so many Southerners, Keith was named for a blind piano player, who is now little remembered, and he spent his earliest years living with his parents in the back rooms of a small-town Georgia radio station. Later, he moved to several other states, including North Carolina twice, before returning to Georgia. He has worked for a series of newspapers, including The Atlanta Journal and Constitution from 1979 to 2007.
