And Still More Christmas Lights

Proud of myself for I made it to Curves again today. There are so many things that I would rather be doing but I know it is good for my knees and the rest of my body. I will continue to go three times a week and keep waiting for exercise to be fun. :O)Scott finished my web site bookstore shortly after the holidays when he was back in Texas but I have not sent emails to anyone telling them that the store is now open. Imagine my surprise when tonight I sat down at the computer, opened my email, and there was an order for a book. It is only a three-dollar book but it is my first official sale. Sold a book yesterday but it was through a group called Quilters Flea Market. I have never listed a book for sale in the group but just check for people who are searching for a certain book. Sold one in early December through the same group. I will remain in the group for every so often someone is searching for a book that I have and want to sell.

As promised last night, here are some more Christmas light pictures. These are on the block in Jonesboro that is called Santa’s Workshop. Santa is there at night to visit with the kids.

Not a great picture but it does show the thousands of lights that surround Santa’s Workshop.

The large stars are hanging on the branches of the tree at the end of the little street.

Through the trees you can see the little street of buildings.

Another view through the trees. I absolutely love trees with lights.

At the opposite end of the block from Santa’s Workshop, an alley is almost covered with lights that turn from white to red as one drives through.

Red lights.

I had to click the shutter many times to end up with only white and only red. Was very surprised to see this one with the lights changing. To drive through this alley is quite an experience.

Tomorrow night will be the last of the photographs and will be all the trees that I love so much.
