"Andalusia was the home of American author Flannery O'Connor from 1951 until her death from lupus in 1964. This is where O'Connor was living when she completed her two novels and two collections of short stories.

 

Andalusia is open for self-guided "walk-in" tours on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. All other visits are by advance appointment only by calling 478-454-4029.

 

Andalusia is located in Baldwin County, Georgia about four miles northwest of Milledgeville, on the west side of U.S. Highway 441. Rolling hills, red clay, pine trees, and hardwoods characterize this part of the state. Native Americans inhabited this region for at least 12,000 years, leaving behind an impressive array of earthen mounds, pottery, tools, weapons, and place names. In fact, several major trading paths converged at a site near Milledgeville. When the city was surveyed in 1803, it was on the very edge of the Georgia frontier.

 

The 544-acre estate is composed of gently rolling hills divided into a farm complex, hayfields, pasture, man-made and natural ponds, and forests. Tobler Creek, a spring fed waterway, intersects the property entering near the west corner and meandering down to exit at the middle of the southeast boundary.

 

The farm complex at Andalusia consists of the main house, a peafowl aviary, Jack & Louise Hill's House, the main cow barn, an equipment shed, the milk-processing shed, an additional smaller barn, a parking garage (also called the Nail House), a water tower, a small storage house (formerly a well house), a horse stable, a pump house, and three tenant houses."

 

"Mary Flannery O’Connor was born in 1925 in Savannah, Georgia, the only child of Edward F. and Regina Cline O’Connor. The O’Connors lived at 207 East Charlton St. across LaFayette Square from the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist where the family attended Mass. In the spring of 1938, the family moved to Atlanta where Edward O’Connor was employed as a Federal Housing Authority real estate appraiser. In 1940, the O’Connors moved to Milledgeville to live in the Cline family home on Greene Street. Mr. O’Connor died of lupus early in 1941, and Mrs. O’Connor and Flannery continued to live in the Milledgeville family home along with Flannery’s aunts. It is here that Flannery would continue to live, with a bedroom on the second floor, while she attended Peabody High School and Georgia State College for Women (now Georgia College & State University)."

 

When Flannery O’Connor left Milledgeville in 1945 to attend the State University of Iowa, she enrolled in the Writers Workshop conducted by Paul Engle. Her thesis there comprised a collection of short stories entitled The Geranium, which would contain the seed of her first novel. She received a Master of Fine Arts degree after two years but remained in Iowa for another year before going to the Yaddo Foundation's

artist colony near Saratoga Springs, New York. Afterwards she lived in New York City where she was introduced to Robert and Sally Fitzgerald, with whom she lived for over a year in Ridgefield, Connecticut. During this time she was writing her first novel Wise Blood.

 

"In late 1950 Flannery O’Connor began to exhibit symptoms of the disease that had killed her father. Her condition forced Flannery to return to Milledgeville in 1951, but she continued working on revised drafts of the novel even while she was in the hospital. But instead of returning to the family home in town, Flannery and her mother moved to the family farm, Andalusia, where Flannery lived for thirteen years, until her death in 1964."

(50mm lens) Walking in the Park out side Milan

Let us walk in the white snow

In a soundless space;

With footsteps quiet and slow,

At a tranquil pace,

Under veils of white lace...

 

We shall walk through the still town

In a windless peace;

We shall step upon white down,

Upon silver fleece,

Upon softer than these...

The 'Sacred Places of Maharashtra' adventure was a 10-day journey that took place in the Indian state of Maharashtra, also known as the ‘land of the saints’. To begin the pilgrimage, a satsang and darshan in Pune was held where many local people got the chance to meet a living Master, Paramahamsa Vishwananda, for the very first time. In the days that followed, Guruji and the pilgrims traveled all across the region to walk in the footsteps of the saints who had lived in these now holy sites. In addition to visiting the samadhis of these saints, many auspicious temples were visited along the way. The stories of the lives of these saints touched everyone who was fortunate enough to be there, and being on this pilgrimage together with Guruji was truly an unforgettable journey.

Stuff from the archives:

 

A holiday charity FlaskMob photo walk in LA, November 2015.

 

Meet started up in the warehouse in LA's South Central area, and participants were encouraged to bring along toys to donate. Group would then walk over to the fire station by USC to deliver and drop off toy donations.

 

Shenanigans ensued along the way, and LAPD was curious :)

Looking back at it, Los Angeles' photo meet culture/scene from 2014 to early pandemic years, was really an amazing, next level, experience.

 

Those events would regularly bring together amazingly creative individuals from different walks of life, from different experiences and backgrounds. They would be foundation of a vibrant and thriving culture and forge lasting relationships for participants involved.

 

I had stumbled upon the scene in early 2015, as I was getting more serious about learning photography, and participated in my fair share of meets. Figured it would be worth posting shots from those days, just keep a record of that experience.

Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend. ~ Albert Camus

The cooler is used to store vegetables. It' a homemade 8'x8'x8' room made with insulated walls. The tomato boxes are really useful, so we use them for whatever veggies fit in them. When the farm season is over we store household stuff in them too. I've been known to use them to carry papers to meetings.
