I visited an old nursery close to the town where I "grew up"

and was just taken in with the abundance of the poinsettia plants that they had.

Every kind of color was there to choose from

and I found myself lost in a sea of color taking it all in.

I was so surprised to see how much in flowers and plants

they had to offer. The areas were unending. It was almost like walking through a park.

Are your local nurseries overflowing as well?

 

I also checked out the local museum and learned about the mammoth that had been discovered at a local lake where we used to take our young children on camping trips.

How about you?

Any dinosaurs hanging out in your favorite spot?

Sophie has been a good, but somewhat reluctant help in decorating for the holidays.

 

 

She is so tired of me doing this to her every year.

But she soon perked up when she discovered that it included a walk down to the road to decorate the gates.

How about you?

Have you gotten the tinsel, the holly, the lights and the stockings all hung?

I would love to hear!
