Kringleville, a long-time holiday tradition in Waterville, is taking a very nontraditional year and making the best of it. Just because we are in a pandemic doesn't mean we should have to go without our traditional Christmas cheer. Each year Krigleville brings lights to Main street downtown with a Christmas parade and many other festive events...
For several years now, those of us who live and work in Augusta have come to know and love the annual celebration of lights and it's one of the most anticipated events of the year.
It is Thanksgiving week, meaning Christmas Season is just about here.
Growing up in the Mayfair neighborhood of Augusta, I was always excited about this time of year. People in my neighborhood would have their Christmas lights up by Thanksgiving weekend, for the most part...
It's time to start thinking about going to the cellar and digging out your Christmas decorations. Or better yet, just plug in the lights that you never took down from last holiday season!
Last year the 56,000 light Christmas display which adorned Jan Stewart's Fountain Valley, California home went viral, with a YouTube video of the lights in action garnering close to 500,000 views.
64 percent of homeowners say they are going to put up Christmas decorations this holiday season. Of course "decorations" can be anything from a simple candle in the window to a blinding and all-encompassing collection of flashing lights.
No matter what the holiday, we always love getting extra festive. It's not like we need an excuse to wear awful Christmas sweaters or take part in a harmless snowman prank, but doing that stuff during the season makes us look a little less crazy. The season also provides the perfect excuse to go way overboard in the decorating department.
