The first weekend of June in Wellborn, FL, means sunshine, large crowds, and, of course, blueberries. The festival features vendors, live bands, and a special appearance by Elvis (Fred Perry) with a medley of his greatest hits. Also on the scene were Suwannee Valley Plein Air Painters who visit scenic locations and quickly finish their paintings. We see CHS art teacher Chris Coleman as he paints, then sells his rendering of Wellborn's firehouse.
Thanks to the Lake City Journal for sharing this. I was working the Country Store at the Festival and missed the parade (and Elvis, too). What a great video!
