My aunt lived a couple of miles down the farm road that camp Tonkawa is on THIS was 70s.Hard to believe its now a RV park,I remember jumping the fence to go swimming
Great video, I graduated from SFA 1993 and unfortunately I didn't know half of the information you just shared. Excellent content, very informative and your personality great..thank you
My hometown. My daughter was married in the Church at Millard's Crossing. When I was a kid the Fredonia Hotel was closed down; it's good to see it's been thriving for many years now.
Time to visit Hemphill. Not much there but it does have the Space Shuttle Columbia memorial and the Patricia Huffman Smith NASA museum. Love your videos. Thanks for visiting the small towns and giving background history of them and also the modern attractions. You did forget to mention that Clint Dempsey is from Nacogdoches.
Hotel Fredonia also has a restored cool mid-century style rear motel area with rooms to handle ADA needs, pets, and families with easy access to pool and parking.
I've never heard of CC's but highly recommend Peking and Clear Springs. The lawn of the Old Stone Fort has really changed since this video was made. Time for a remake?
SFA is now a very, liberal, Communist, WOKE university that is part of the Commie University of Texas system thanks to Gov. Abbott. So unless you want a morally bankrupt and propaganda brainwashing lack of education, then I'd find somewhere else to go to college. The Fredonia Hotel lobby used to be beautiful and classy, but now it's mid-century modern atmosphere just doesn't have the appeal it used to have. The restaurant is very expensive and having fried shrimp rolled in corn meal and weird sides just doesn't work. If you want really good seafood, steaks, and the best onion rings you've ever put in your mouth, then go to Clear Springs Restaurant. You won't be disappointed.
Totally disagree, as someone born in Nacogdoches and a current student, Stephen F. Austin is great and actually had a Republican Congressman deliver the graduation ceremony today. The hotel is better than ever, great food and hosts the Texas Lone Star Legislative Summit every session.
Fun video! I'm 72, born, raised and lived in Nacogdoches my whole life. I love my hometown !
So this is where Dempsey came from

Melrose would have been a nice side trip, Texas’s first oil field.
Somewhere close to home (half an hour away to be exact)! ❤

I was hoping to see a little about the down town shops and buildings
Thin steak is better for business because it cooks quickly and that ensures constant rollover in the dining room

Natchitoches is pronounced Nak-uh-dish.
Didn't care for the theatrics in the video. Couldn't finish watching.
College town? Pass

Nacogdoches is only 50% white so this video is missing a whole lot.
Nacogdoches has a JP Springer who will hit you with a L James like fine if you try to exercise your rights. 1700 dollars.
