All dressed up
To encourage business owners to decorate their shop windows during the holiday season, the city sponsors a contest during December. There is a small local prize for the winner, but from what we understand the motivation is more about being part of the community; joining in with the others rather than trying to outdo someone else. We walked around the main shopping streets and got some shots of our favorites; sometimes the entire storefront and occasionally just one ornament tucked among many. Enjoy the show!

How beautiful they are! They would have all caught my eye but I love the green garlands and trees in the 4th and 6th pictures the best! But I’d want a gift from the jewelry store the most!
