CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

[Gone in 60]

Lots going on at work between end-of-year projects and trade shows, and went a few weeks without a break. That, apparently, has made me cranky enough that I was highly encouraged by my workmates and my wife to take a day off to let my Christmas spirit reservoir fill itself up a bit. It started out as a beautiful day, so I went out to do some Christmas shopping.

Along the way, I remembered that Ferret wanted to see some more palm trees. So, I stopped to snap some.

This is Candy Cane Lane in our town, where everyone for two blocks wraps the palm trees with red and white lights and festoons their houses with Christmas cheer. There is an annual theme, and it's patriotic this year, so the trees are wrapped red, white and blue. If I tried to take a picture at night, my phone would freak out, so here's a day time picture. The side of the street with the tall, evenly spaced palms isn't part of Candy Cane Lane, but the house at the end of the block does a Griswold Christmas theme that can be seen for several blocks.

Ironically, this street, lined with palms, is called Pine Street.
