LIGHTS ON THE LAKE

Christmas week ended with a family outing (20 of us) to the Lights on the Lake walk- through event at Shannondale Lake in Harpers Ferry, WV.  It was my first time, and I took so many pictures it was hard to pick out just a few to post. They were all my favorites. 

This next section of the walk-through consisted of a series of community decorated trees sponsored by local businesses and organizations to help raise funds for local nonprofits. I didn't count how many there were, but I think there must have been at least 20.

 

My four great-grands had watched the movie Elf the day before our outing and were excited to spot this life-size cardboard cutout of him they could pose with.

There were ducks swimming on the lake. The white one seemed to be in the lead and then there was a tight circle of eight or nine other ducks following it. I tried to take a picture but my cell phone camera accidentally got jostled into video mode and all it captured was a very disappointing blur.

My three-year-old great-grandson seemed to be mesmerized by the sight of them swimming back and forth. 

Here we have a shot of one of my out-of-town grandsons and his girlfriend posing for the camera.

If you made it all the way to the end of this post, thanks for taking the time to view all my many pictures. Hope you enjoyed the tour.
