Making Spirits Bright

Christmas Lights on a house in Highland Park — Almost a gingerbread house, sparkling in the snow. Good thing there is a fence to keep in the reindeer!

Left school so late that it was dark. Drove a circuitous route home to check out the lights in Morningside. The house I have photographed the past two years didn’t have a single light. Thinking about the possible reasons for no lights this year but maybe they just moved. This house up the street looked lovely in the snow with the greens and ribbons on the white fence.

Looks like a Christmas card. — Looks more like New England than Pittsburgh to me.

Keeping the Darkness at Bay

No one seems worried about the electric bills! The days are growing shorter and the light displays increasing.

What an effort! Wonder where they store them all year long. — East Liberty off Negley Avenue.

Between the Neon Beer Signs on Carson Street

South Side. There is a house sandwiched between storefronts and bars on Carson. Here is how it looked Friday night. In this view you can’t see the Jockey lawn ornament by the life-size Santa and Mrs. Claus.

Christmas House Lights at Night

Last year I used this house as my Christmas Card- From Not My House to Your House greeting. Photographed it again last night, a year later. No snow this time, though. It appeals to me, even if it is over the top!
