New Year's Day in Indiana (January 11, 2022)

The day before, the day of New Year's Day and the day after we spent at Rising Sun, Indiana. Got a last look at the reindeer there (seen here at breakfast) and a few Christmas lights. Got to go to a dinner and see the band "Seven Bridges" from Nashville, TN which is an Eagles Tribute Band. They were pretty good, and was the first concert we have been to since seeing Keith Urban back when we lived in Virginia some 3 years ago. 

It was a great time and enjoyed the trip. We have had both Covid shots and the booster and we also wore masks to prevent a good trip from becoming a bad one. Seems to have worked on this trip!   




 

Christmas Sights (January 11, 2022)

A look back at Christmas lights and displays for 2021. Debbie and me had a wonderful time and saw some remarkable sights while we went to some places during drives around the region. We visited some great light displays and also visited some drive though light displays. 

At left is a tree (in a neighborhood at that) in Tipp City, Ohio, below that just outside of Tipp City, and below that part of a drive thru display in Xenia, Ohio. 

Fourth is Troy, Ohio downtown, and at bottom is downtown Tipp City. We also saw some displays in downtown Dayton, Huber Heights and a few other places out and about the region. 

It was a beautiful Christmas, in my opinion the best I ever had .Weather was much warmer than usual and there was nothing but a trace of snow the month of December.

February has been an interesting month here in Central Ohio. Seen some visiting birds, and some fantastic regular residents here at the lake...
