Christmas lights

I drive past lit houses and am reminded of Christmas...there's something about seeing a tree's image framed to be seen at night time... The 30 lined-up soldier boys are sort of frightening in an eerie way and the blown up Santas and manger scenes along with the 70 other air blown up things and exageration of lights that make it look too busy and stupid, if you ask me. All the same, I love it! I love that people are excited and rejoiceful together!

I always imagine those weird people, with no spatial reasoning or ability to understand the beauty of simplicity putting all their 'cute' decorations outside. They just have to fill up every space so that everything lights up. I think its silly and cute!

And then there are those houses that take your breath away. Those decorations that really know how to capture your attention without all the blown up snowmen and overdriven lights.

...I love it when you drive downtown and all the buildings are alit and framed so that it seems almost as if you're in a different world.
