Tha Rae Christmas Parades

Ask ten people and you get ten different answers. My latest source is an employee at the Tha Rae church.  Fair grounds and sales begin at 4 pm. The motorized star parade on December 23 begins at 6 pm.
There is a walking parade with handheld stars on Dec 24 

I recommend you park a few blocks from the church and walk in.  Otherwise you may get blocked in.  I've been going to Tha Rae days before the parade and photograph people busy decorating houses and floats.  I'll be doing that this year also and it there are any changes I will post it days before the event

The rainy season is gone,
it's time to pack up the frowns and "BE HAPPY!"

Gloomy weather (rain and clouds) affect our personalities, we've all experienced it to some degree.  Hot weather tends to make me somewhat lethargic (sluggish). Temperatures from the mid fifties to the mid seventies suit me ideally.  It's great for housework, gardening, shopping, traveling  and all those other fun things. Long Alaska winters and no sunset summers probably probably had some influence during my teen years. 
New scientific findings seem to confirm my own assumptions, and examine other effects, including 'global warming.'
