Day 122.  I can't believe it is almost Christmas.  It is not Thanksgiving yet but the city has already lighted/lit up the street decorations.  Tomorrow night is supposed to be the official time to light them up.  Most of the decorations are candy canes or bells or trees, but their are two toy soldiers.  One on the east end of town and one on the west end.  This one is at our street, the east side of town.  Last year the light crew messed up and put him on the other side of the street.  We were pretty upset, and Annie was afraid that we wouldn't know where our street was.  This year they got it right.  It's nice to know that he will be standing guard once again where we sill see him every night.
