Well, it is Sunday again and I have been a little remiss in posting. That is because it is getting quite busy with everybody coming to see the 180,000 lights that are here now for the Christmas season. Yesterday, we had almost 200 come to see the lights and the nativity scenes we have in the visitors center throughout December. I will try to get some good pictures of the paintings by Simon Dewey. They are gorgeous. Here are some of the lights that I could capture with my wannabe camera.
As you can see, we have snow now. It has snowed three times this winter and each time the snow has gone completely except for this time and even most of that has melted.
When Junius Wells came to put up the monument in 1905 the locals here called it "Mr. Wells' Winter" because there was no snow then either, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to put up the monument. We are having a Wells winter.
We have had a pretty mild winter so far this year too and oh how I hope it stays this way!!!! Love the lights and wish we could see them first hand!!
