I don't think this has been posted before (if it has, I can't find it anywhere).

In October, Ray's home town of Waukegan held its 4th annual Ray Bradbury Storytelling Festival. I couldn't get there myself (living on a different continent is a bit of a nuisance), but somebody was there with a camera. The Waukegan Public Library hosts this photo gallery of the event:

No captions or explanations, but the folks seem to be having fun. That's the historic Genesee Theatre decked out with ghosts and cobwebs - a place I was pleased to visit earlier in the year, and I'm pleased to see the place being put to good use!

The public library also hosts a brief report on the event here:

(the report is about halfway down the page).

I spoke of it here once, but I can't find it either (the find feature on this site is greatly lacking).
