Sonny:
My mom lives down the street from the 'Home Alone' house in Winnetka,
Illinois. There used to be a sign in the window, with a picture of
McCaulay Culkin. It's just another two-story brick house - nothing
much to photograph there. I preferred the farolitos around the house
down the street when I'd visit at Christmastime.
The Steel Magnolias settings and houses you've photographed are very
pretty. Much nicer than a two-story house on a dark, tree-shaded street.

I've been trying to think of some ways to show Natchitoches Spring
flowers in context without too much landscape, so I thought I'd show
you some stars from Steel Magnolias. I was not yet back in
Natchitoches in 1989 when Hollywood came in and took over the town.
They made sets from homes and built a soundstage at the University in a gym.
You remember that film, don't you? It was the chick-flick of the
decade. Nominated for Oscars and won Golden Globe, all that
stuff. You can hardly surf cable TV without finding it playing on
some channel.
There's even a carriage tour of the locations here. That's where
I'm going with this; a short tour of Steel Magnolia locations. It
ain't art, but might be pretty.
