Peace, Tradition, and Light

Lights, nostalgia, Chinese and a little TRAditION...

Joining in the fairyland of Christmas and fantasy lights, we cruised thru the neighborhoods recounting stories of years past these brought to mind.  If you live in the Seattle area, look up Candy Cane Lane and Olympic Manor, these are the two best areas to see.

But first we watched the wonderful film "Fiddler on the Roof" at the Uptown Theatre on Queen Anne Hill...  as a sing-along!   And with a Chinese buffet lunch right in the theatre too.  So very Jewish and satisfying fun.  And one of my favorite films, full of nostalgia and tradition.

More lights, a Hawaiian theme...

A dungeness crab...

Lots of candy canes...

Only small artful decorations at home, as we no longer cut our own tree while skiing, or do intense Christmas.  It's more our own created simple version of various traditions, and we like it this way a lot.  Quiet, harmonious...

A time to reflect, rest, and sometimes, play with my camera...

Wishing Peace and Harmony and Light Shining Brightly on You.
