Hello Joe !
Sorry, I haven`t replyed sooner,my friend !

Ditto, my friend ! I know about Bosque County and Clifton, and that it`s our Capitol of the South.
Our problem now is that there are very few of us left there , so the majority of the town (German decented) do uphold our traditions there of what I know. We are of course grateful for that.

The majority of Norwegians in Texas these days lives in Houston, appox 5.000; but I do not know if they are aware of the history of Clifton and Bosque County. http://www.visitclifton.org/page/country-christmas.aspx

It would have been fun to visit the town during the festival, but as the currency exchange are these days - a tour to the US are too expensive.

Maybe talk to Santa ? Hmm..
