Called the Parade of Lights, this is a very special Christmas parade.
Each year, we and our friends gather under pop-up tents decorated with Christmas lights (organized, set up, and run on a generator very generously by one of the friends). We drink hot chocolate with whipped cream, eat the cookies and savories we each brought, and visit until the dusk, when the parade begins.
It starts like any other parade, with marching bands and boy scouts and the like. But as twilight gets darker, the floats start coming by…
Every one of them decked out in lighted finery.
Lots of creative imagination on display.
As always, it was over far too soon, and we all had a marvelous time kicking off the holiday season with the beautiful display of lights!
