Christmas In Our Small Town


One of the things we love about the little town we live in is that it is a little town. And so each year, in small town fashion, employees of the local power company spend weeks stringing Christmas lights all around the Town Square.
We spent last Saturday evening on the square taking photographs and walking around enjoying the sights and sounds of the season.
If you look closely in the center of this picture, you can see a white, horse-drawn carriage that takes people for carriage rides around town during the holidays. One of the reasons we moved to Ocala was because of its small town flavor and we have not been disappointed. We love the slow pace and all of the other "little" things that make this town home.

yuletide carols being sung by a choir, and folks dressed up like eskimos...
