for Texas to leave the Union,
(stupid plan)June 10, 2023 was the 33rd. Nacogdoches Blueberry Festival. Its hot outside, but I wouldn't have it any other way. In the downtown area churches (and other organizations) actively handed out cold bottled water to the people attending.
The Blueberry Festival is centered around the Nacogdoches Visitors Center, a great place to get historical information and see its exhibits. Every year in front of the visitors center is parked the very nicely restored Tipton Ford Blueberry truck. There was some live entertainment and a selection of vendors. This is the largest annual festival in Nacogdoches and everybody had a good time. Every year I see some old friends that I have not seen in years.
Just South of downtown is Festival Park where they had the Blueberry Festival auto show. I liked best the old coops and the 1957 Chevy.
Commentary: This year the size of the festival and the visitation was diminished from the past years. I feel that the live entertainment was not as good as before. The food vendors that I wanted to buy my lunch had long lines (about a 30 minute wait), and they did not have the prices of their food posted;
so wait in line then find out how much they wanted for the food. (no thanks).
