Christmas Lights

One morning, I woke up early to see the sunrise; so early that it was still dark out.  I wanted to see the lights lit up around town, so I headed for the roads to gaze at all the Christmas beauty that surrounded me.

 

I brought a couple of fresh baked cookies

from the night before,

 

 

 a hot cup of coffee,

and was on my way.  Come along with me.

 

 

The little church that has stood

for 100 years.

 

 

 

 

A very charming shop in town

that I go to often.

It was closed, but the windows

were all lit up.

 

 

 

 

Driving through the mall,
 

 

 

and now we're at my favorite

shopping center.

 

 

 

 

I am always reminded that I live in

California

when I see this palm tree decorated

every year.

 

 

Then, I saw the most glorious sunrise.

 

 

 

It was so pretty,

that the reflection of it was shown

on my car.

 

 

I hope you enjoyed the drive

around my town

to see the Christmas lights.

Isn't it the most wonderful time of year?
