Across the street, the neighbors have already removed all their Christmas decor. The exterior decorations and lights were gone before New Year’s Eve and the tree in their window was not lit up last night, so I can only assume it, along with the candles they had in their second-floor windows has been taken down for the season. Up the street, a house that had a yard full of lighted things, including an inflatable snow-globe of a reindeer helping to pull Santa out of a chimney, was not lit last night. In other places around the neighborhood the lights were off or parts of them were burned out and not replaced. Ah, such is the end of the Christmas season. Soon, I will be taking our exterior lights down and packing away our inflatable tableau of Charlie Brown, Snoopy, his dog house with Woodstock sitting on top holding on to a wreath. But at 18 degrees F right now, I may wait a day or a few to see if it warms up a little.
