Thought to have begun in the Bavarian region of Munich, Germany, Oktoberfest is typically celebrated from mid-September through the first weekend in October.
After a trip through West Texas this past weekend, I am more proud to be a Texan than ever before. I see what our farmers are doing with Texas Red Dirt.
Again, to each their own. Enjoy. Do your thing. But I'd be fibbing if I didn't say I think we've gone one step too far. In my opinion, a Homecoming Mum shouldn't be more visible than the kids wearing them.
