For the record, i have no issue with any Xmas decorations. I don't care what others put up. I used to say i like the Xmas season because that's when folks seem to be extra nice to each other, but apparently the thought of inflatables still manages to suck the jelly out of some folk's donuts.
Buh bye inflatables....better luck next year!

Yep. I grew up with colored incandescent bulbs. I’ve been white LED for decades. Just say no to blinking. We have white LED lights on timers on some of the landscaping in front of the house. The Christmas tree went up last Sunday. I had the Vince Guaraldi Trio Peanuts XMas music on yesterday. The song Skating is my definitive Christmas music.
