What another nice day today - beautiful sunny 72 degree weather. We dropped into the fabulous flea market in Mesa, ran a few errands and ended up at an Olive Garden for dinner. We could NOT BELIEVE the number of cars in the parking lots of shopping centers!! Cars were circulating, trying to get a parking spot AT 5:30 PM!!! Do most people wait until the last minute to shop?
We drove to Phoenix where they had a mile long display of over 7 million Christmas lights, most animated - we stayed in the car and drove through the display. Waterloo Park looks a little 'small' compared to this.
Upon entering this subdivision, the streets are lined with luminaries - little tea lights in paper bags, glimmering in the night. Apparently hundreds of volunteers set them out and light them approximately at the same time. What a sight!
Gret news - we bought a beautiful house with possession date of January 26th. We have it rented out for February and March and hope to get back down here in April. We are pretty excited about it!
