...and a Happy New Year

There's something inherently Tillamooky about a combination of Christmas lights and minor flooding....

And look at all those cute little birds.

Fortunately most Christmas lights are kept up til New Year's.... and then there's always the two or three people who keep their strings up year round....

I swear, mid-sunset is about the best time to photo Christmas lights. Dark enough for the lights to glow . . . but still light enough that they're not washing out everything else
