Christmas in Comfort happens the Saturday after Thanksgiving and has been happening for a long time … the downtown streets of Comfort, Texas are closed off and the place is full up with street vendors peddlin’ their crafts, wares and food followed by one of the largest nightime Christmas parades around.

The Cartoon Cowboy has made an effort to participate in the festivities (Lone Star Beer) every chance he gets.

Here are a few photos from yesterday’s event.

… if you don’t get excited about street peddlers then you need to check your “fun thermometer” … 

JP and Rudolph

“MACHETE” … the street peddler did manage to wrangle a $10.00 bill from me for the purchase of this fine Rudolph hat … well worth the money …

… and “YES” … we can drink beer in the streets !

2006 – This one I did for the cover of one of my books …

To the best of my knowledge I have never ridden my bicycle home from The Cocky Rooster Bar …

That is because I DO NOT not own a bicycle …

But I may have ridden someone else’s bicycle home because I just discovered that my barn is full of bicycles and I don’t have a clue as to where they came from …
