Black Belt Folk Roots Festival

It's time once again for the annual Black Belt Folk Roots Festival. It will be held this coming weekend, August 26 and 27 on the Old Courthouse Square, Main Street in Eutaw Alabama.

There'll be crafts, quilts, baskets, etc., lots of food and live music. Too bad the planners of this event didn't take into account the miserable, sweltering heat and humidity when they chose the time of year to have the festival.

One can only venture to guess how many people there are who would like to attend, but choose to stay away because of the August heat. I won't be going and I live only a few blocks away from Old Courthouse Square.

They say there will be live blues bands on Saturday. I'd like to hear that, but oh well..........

Maybe one day the planners will get a clue. Wishful thinking.
