Not much to report on the park I'm afraid. It was as decked out for Christmas as the recent previous years. Cinnamon bread came right out of the oven and absolutely no line to get it (double bonus!). Umm, got some great buys on last years christmas decorations and ornaments so by other half was excited about that. The foliage was jaw dropping.

Can you remind us what the other big news was outside if the Outlaw Run?  I am drawing a blank...

the big news was the new character that SDC get to use as the theme. That character was?????
Gee Swoosh, can I tell or is it suddenly hush, hush?  (That is if I remember correctly who it is) I think I know, has something to do with the color 9

The other big news, as you will remember, is that SDC licensed rights for Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. So, how was Rudolph's presence at the Christmas festival in the shops, and on the streets?

I want to enjoy my November and Thanksgiving first before getting into the Christmas spirit.  It's not likely that we'll get there before December, so that works out.  We are thinking of going during the weekend AFTER Christmas Day, however.

Thanks, Swoosh!   Oh by the way people...if you go to the Christmas festival, PLEASE post some photos. I love those pictures of all the lights. Of course, some holiday shots of some of our favorite citizens are welcome, too.  :)

My teenage boys are even talking like they might want to put down the XBOX controller and accompany me to SDC this winter. What gives with that?
