Middle school group at Crabtree Mall this morning singing Christmas songs. They were quite good and for the most part they sung the songs straight.
Crabtree has several school performances in the mall this time of year. Always a treat to see and hear.

Iron and bricks.
Love green garlands and red bows on iron railings and brick makes such a nice backdrop for Christmas greenery.
The following were taken at different places around Raleigh

1) Adorned stairs lead from one level to another in a nearby strip mall.

2) Lush wreath securely affixed to a brick wall. They were interspaced all along the outdoor walkway between storefronts.

3) Elegant office doorway.

4) Outdoor restaurant sitting area with decorated railings.

5) Our local grocery store makes it clear we are in the Christmas season!
