Tree Lights on the Road-Henry.

Tonight we went back to Tanglewood Park for what I like to call "Tree Lights in the Park."
We almost didn't go because I refused to eat any of the beef stew mama made. But finally I ate 3 bites and we were allowed to go.

The pictures don't really do the light show justice, but we'll give it a try. This is the snowflake forest. It twinkled as we drove through it.

Mama played with the shutter speed on her camera. This is with a 2 second speed. This horse was really fast, but now we can see 4 of it.

We drove underneath these big candles. I counted 2 plus 2 equals 4 candles.

This trumpet spewed stars and cheer. You can't tell by the picture but it was about 40 feet tall.

Another slow shot. Instead of 1 deer jumping over the street, now there's a deer arch.

This is the real reason we went back. I wanted to see the "crocodile." Mama loves that the dragon is wearing a santa hat and the pirate ship is filled with trees and poinsettias. This display was cool because it was huge and in the water.

Another magical forest- this one was filled with bells.

This funny Eskimo caught fish and threw them to the polar bear.

Grandpa and Uncle Kevin- this guy is for you.


This was a real train decorated with lights.

Papa wanted this shot. The golfer hits his ball really fast over and across the road. You can see the 50 "balls" shoot really fast.

Look at how big this arch is compared to the truck driving under it.

Juner liked the scene of Santa and his reindeer flying over a town.

Finally, there have been those of you (Grams Crackers Cooper) who have been upset that I don't know much about the big man- Santa Claus. Well Grandma, you'll be glad to know that I am now an expert in all things Santa. I informed mama and papa that his job is to hand out candy canes and he rides a fire truck. Not bad huh?
