You might remember Suzanne from Honfest, I ran into her again at the Montgomery Agricultural County Fair.  On Saturday evening near the fried dough stand, I approached a cowgirl and said I was taking portraits of people in attendance.  Suzanne took one look at me and started laughing.  Yet it took me a minute to realize who she was.  The last time I saw her was inside the canopy tent at Honfest where girls were stuffing newspaper into their beehive and hairspray clouded the air.  It’s a small, small world.

Suzanne started a club for straight women and men to embrace their inner drag queen.  On the group’s Facebook page it reads, “What to do if you’re not a transvestite cabaret performer, but you still have the urge for drama and excitement? You don’t need to be a tranny! You need us!”  They have an ambitious schedule coming up that includes a rodeo, bingo, picnics, vineyards and a Juliette Lewis concert. Plus we may try to coordinate something for the Maryland Renaissance Festival (maybe on Pirate Weekend).
