Sledding


When school work and chores are done it is time to go out and play.
And there is no better place to go but downtown to go sledding.
This being Friday and the Thanksgiving weekend, the sledding hill was packed with kids.
Bonnie and our neighbor joined the masses of children to have fun sliding down the hill.

Just a few feet away from where we stood is the gazebo 
where a brass ensemble entertained us with Christmas tunes.

It is so cool being in town with all the lights, music, and festive spirit.

As the evening wore on, the brass ensemble was replaced with a choral  group who led the crowd in singing
Christmas carols.  I would have loved to stay to sing songs but it was time to go home and fix dinner.
But we will back for more fun.  Next weekend starts the official Christmas lighting.  The kids and I will be
participating in the lighting dressed up as Christmas characters.  We will get to mingle with the tourists, sing
carols, and have fun.

What a great place to live.
