Happy Holidays!!

Last night we went to the Ginter Garden Dominion Energy Garden Fest of Lights. This was our first visit to the light festival even though we visit Ginter Garden quite often. Truthfully, I’ve been reluctant in the past because I anticipated cold (wrong!) and the crowds (wrong again!). BUT, this was different, we went just as the sun was setting on a weekday to avoid the crowds. AND, the temperature was in the high 40s, low 50s, clear skies so the weather was perfect. There were folks with small kids but not that many, I’d think it will pick up as Christmas gets closer. And it will get colder. Ah. Life.

The images are from my camera, hand held so the ISO and “noise” is a bit high. The video is from my little camera on a stick. We walked all the walks, had hot beverages in the “Jingle Bar,'“ sat in most of the benches, and enjoyed our time in the forest, electronic as it was. For us, this was a peaceful, two hour, Norman Rockwell kind of night.
