The time off so far has been fun. My sisters and BIL came to town for a few days. We did a lot of tourist things and went to a bunch of local restaurants. A good time was had.
One thing that disappointed me was the lack of hot air balloons. I talk all the time about how we see balloons in the air all year 'round. No such luck. I guess all the balloonists were working at their day jobs in the days leading up to Christmas. My younger sister did get lucky on Christmas Day. She went out to get the newspaper and there one was at the end of the street. She took a couple of photos (I don't have copies). They left on Friday and wouldn't you know, one took off from the park out back this morning.
In looking at my last post, this appears to be the same balloon shown in my previous post. I guess they're a balloonist that resides in this neighborhood who finds the park a convenient launching pad.
Today I added to my small amount of Christmas decorations. While my sisters and BIL were in town, it occurred to me that putting Christmas tree balls in my cut glass bowls would be pretty. I was at Target today and they had decorations on sale so, what the heck.
I think they look very festive.
Happy Holidays!
