Holiday Spirit

Went downtown to watch the nighttime Christmas Parade tonight.

It's held just after dark, and all the entries whether they are cars, floats, people on foot or on horseback, bicycles, you name it are decorated with christmas lights. That's what its all about.

It's pretty hard to get good photos with everything being so dark. Most turn out a little blurry from long exposure times and movement. But here's a couple that aren't too bad.

Fortunately it wasn't too cold or windy, as it sometimes is. Was around 32 degrees with a very light breeze, so for once it wasn't completely numbing. Even though I was pretty cold by time it was over - it's a pretty long parade!
