My, what a difference in our weather from last week. This is definitely an early start to real winter weather. I am guessing that about six inches of the white stuff was cleared from our driveway in the past few days. Add to this, the few nights of very cold temperatures and we are in full swing into the pre- Christmas season. It is quite evident as night falls, to see so many homes decorated with festive lighting.
Each year, I see new and ever changing displays of Christmas lights and outdoor decorations. What a great way to chase away the darkness with lights and colour.

I noticed a few hunters here in Waltham were lucky to get a deer. We hope that everyone enjoyed the hunt.
