This is the first house when I turn into Corky's neighborhood. Every possible spot has something. They seem to love holidays, I sometimes wonder if they don't really live here but just use it to store decorations for all the holidays in the year!
Here are two palms wrapped in orange lights and topped with green - looks like a coupla' giant carrots, eh? Gathered around the bottom are bright red poinsettias.
I think of these three as Papa, Momma, Toddler snow carolers - but I'm not sure, they are all wearing top hats, so maybe they are all guy carolers.
Corky is here for the weekend, but we drove back to his house in LBeach to give his parents a lift to the Boat Parade. It is a real mob scene every year. This afternoon they (like other people who want to see the parade) drove over to park their car somewhere near the location of the party they would attend after the parade. About 5pm Corky and I gave them a ride to near the start of the parade and then headed home in bumper to bumper traffic - doubled the time of the normal drive. Fortunately, Corky is the perfect traveling dog - he just curls up and goes to sleep! I just poke along listening to the radio. Gorgeous evening - daytime temp was 85F.
