Brenda calls the Yellow Fever Festival the Yellow Fly Festival.
The yellow fly is the deer fly. One bit me between the shoulder blades--
they sting you where you can't swat them--it got infected, and gave me
a case of shingles. They are the bane of archeologists in the summertime.
Working with no shirt on. In the piney woods. Where Zora Neale Hurston went
to collect folklore when she was on the WPA Writer's Project working for
Stetson Kennedy. Work as hard as a turpentine nigger. Naval stores industry.
