Who knew all this would happen afterwards! Flat Creek in Feb. 2024. Much changed by the force of the hurricane floods in Sept. 2024.

A bit more of our tour of lights

 



My first house, before picking up my friend.

Isn't the creche scene shadowed on the house a great addition?

A second shot of the same yard, but snoopy in the back isn't as clear as we wished.





Isn't it fun the way the light flowed in a haze above the edge of the roof? Or maybe I've got a fingerprint on the lens!!




We liked the candy canes (red) as well as multi-colored ice cycles.

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength,

  1. I like your tours, and, as I have said before, I can appreciate how pleasant it must be to do this in relative warmth. I still miss the snow, though. Even in our cold climate, I have been reluctant to photograph Christmas lights when there has been no snow, even though it might not have been very cold at the time.

  2. ...beautiful, but I'm glad that I don't get their electric bill.

    1. I remember thinking that once. For some reason it wasn't in the mind of the beholder that night driving around!

    1. They are pretty similar to all over America, but I'm just glad that a few people still do this for other's enjoyment.

  4. I imagine that many of those lights have come down now. We did not see as many as you have shared here these last few weeks.

    1. For a small community, I guess we've got maybe a large percent (15%) of homes that do lights...and maybe almost all have Christmas trees inside.

    1. Thanks Eileen, I did enjoy going looking for photo opportunities. And of course a few photos were too bad to publish here.

    1. Driving around early evening just after Solstice and Christmas was enjoyable. I dare say most have been removed by now.
