In the United States, autumn is the time for outdoor festivals. There are festivals celebrating Greek culture, folk music festivals, and even festivals to celebrate historic cemeteries. One of the most unusual festivals is the Oliver Hardy Festival that recently took place in Harlem, Georgia, a town of 2,000 about 30 miles west of Augusta in the southern state of Georgia

Philip Graitcer traveled from Atlanta to see it.
