Street Decorations in Greensboro




After dark on December 30, we drove about half an hour to Greensboro to see a huge neighborhood collection of Christmas decorations. Some years ago neighbors decided to hang balls of lights in trees. It spread so that now there is a big area where most folks decorate their yards. They agree to have the lights on during a certain period before Christmas. Participation is voluntary after the 25th, so we probably missed some.

We drove around and ended at the booth where food for charity was collected. Beth and Bob had brought canned goods and left them there. It was a marvelous experience for me.

  1. That’s a very unique idea – is it one strand of lights for each ball, just wadded up into a ball shape? That’s a nice gesture. We have a few churches where they have a wooden blessing box behind the church for people who are in need of a few things to tide them over but not in need for going to a food bank.

      1. That’s unique and I like how it looked. Thanks for the explanation. I like that it is a community effort which makes it even more special than the lights themselves.
