Lights, Camera, ACTION!

I moved my run to this morning, so I could check out what was happening in Fondren. I got there around 6:15 a.m. and was I surprised! I got there to see the street had been completely transformed to look like the 1960's. The building facades were finished, there were classic cars in the parking spots, and people walking around in their 1960's attire.

Thanks to some eavesdropping, I found out what scene they were going to film. Skeeter (Emma Stone) fills up her car at the Shell Station and then drives down the road to Kolb's Cleaners to pick up her dry cleaning.

Here are the pictures I got!!!
