Migraine
prevented me from cobbling together homemade treats on Friday evening, but
grocery store treats seem to be filling the bill, as far as today’s customers
are concerned on this Shop Local Saturday 2016.
Except
for a couple bursts of sunshine, the sky has been overcast and grey. All the
better, perhaps, to showcase holiday lights. My little tree is twinkling away,
and the 4,000 lights on the village tree will be lit in a couple of hours.
But
the best, from my point of view, begins 20 minutes from the time I tap out
these words: the decorated, horse-drawn wagon will be giving rides around
downtown beginning at 4 p.m. I hope to get at least one decent picture of that
to include later as a postscript -- because everything in life is better with horses.
Postscript
Okay,
my attempts to photograph the horses in the dark were none too successful (although I'm proud that this is one Northport tradition I started and that lines were long with families waiting for the village tour)...
...but
the tree lighting was truly MAGNIFICENT!
