Spontaneous Movie Day - Christmas Lights

(Avon Park, FL) Hi 64 Lo 37 -- It was cold this morning when I did my walk, but with a coat on and brisk walking it didn't take long to warm up. There weren't very many people out, but there was a few other walkers.

I didn't do much most of the morning, but I did get the shows on TV all caught up. Jim is reading a book and trying to get it done so he can get it back to the library.  Judy and Jimmy came over and asked if we wanted to go with them to the movies this afternoon. Sure! We went to see "This Is 40". It's a pretty funny movie, but if you're sensitive to crude humor and language we would advise you to skip it. But we enjoyed it and had some laughs.

We had heard about a local community called Sebring Village, and the display of lights they put on for Christmas. So on the way home from the movie we decided to check it out. Boy, was it worth it! It was really beautiful. It seemed like every house was awash in lights, along with all the palm trees. These pictures were taken with my phone's camera and some aren't real clear, but I hope you get the idea.  (Click on photos to make them larger.)














We were all starving, so we stopped at one of our favorite places to eat, The Clock Restaurant in Avon Park. We've noticed that for such a small town there are some really good restaurants around here, with very reasonable prices. We love it.

We said our goodbye's to Judy and Jimmy, then watched some TV before going to bed.

I get some laughs from the trailer for that movie, but they are usually the funniest parts. Nice lights!
