Last night we went "overstreet" to the Christmas Tree Lighting in the Village Park. When we arrived the fire was already burning and local folks were standing around chatting and greeting one another. The fire kept us warm in the 18 degree weather. Cookies and cocoa were free, donated by the towns folks (I donated 2 dozen of my christmas tree sugar cookies).
A beautiful Wagon was pulled by two huge horse, giving rides around town.
The choirs from the Methodist, Baptist, and Presbyterian churches each sang traditional Christmas Songs and some students/bands from the NCS band also performed.
Up on the stage, children gathered as the the Christmas story was told by one of the local men. Christmas trees had been decorated by different groups and judged.
It was a nice feeling of old time Christmas.
