Lufkin and Nacogdoches Plan Christmas Events

Jen Austin — Mon, 26 Nov 2012 13:12:22 +0000

At some stores and homes, the Christmas decorations were up before Thanksgiving.

Those of us that did put up the Christmas tree before carving the turkey have been accused of breaking holiday rules, but rather than rebellion, we rule breakers argue it's convenient. With the decorating out of the way we could concentrate on matters like shopping.

Now that Thanksgiving is officially behind us, the rule followers are breaking out the Christmas lights too. Lufkin will light up the season with a Christmas parade on Tuesday.

Whether it’s a full scale Broadway production, television special, film release, or Community Theatre performance, the plot has remained the same since 1977, when the original ‘Annie‘ debuted to audiences with all the pomp and circumstance it was billed at.

Parts of East Texas to Get Partial Views of Solar Eclipse

Jen Austin — Fri, 18 May 2012 14:04:20 +0000

An eclipse like this only happens once every twenty years, and it will be viewable in Texas Sunday; partially anyway.

A solar eclipse is when the moon blocks out the sun for a time, and leaves a ring of fire around its circumference. The sky gets a little spooky-looking for a bit and then the moon and sun part like a good Dancing with the Stars release move, and life goes back to normal.

Spots like Reno, NV and Albuquerque, NM will have the most spectacular views of the complete eclipse, but the entire path of the eclipse stretches from China to Texas. Plenty of folks will have the opportunity to see the rare show of nature.
