Friday, November 24, 2017:
The annual Nisswa, Minnesota, Lights Celebration. It started before dark with horse drawn wagons. Look at the hoofs on those draft horses. Best not to get in their way. |
 |
|
Local
musicians put on a concert to help the Salvation Army raise money. |
 |
 |
 |
|
These
amateur musicians donate their time every year for this cause. |
 |
|
Lots of
family photos were taken that day. Some likely appear on Christmas cards. |
 |
|
Santa
was there to ask kids what they wanted for Christmas. Nice man. |
 |
|
Some
visitors arrived by walking under Highway 371 through a tunnel. |
 |
|
The
Pioneer Village showed off a Christmas scene with miniature homes and
businesses. |
 |
|
Yes,
there was a lot of holiday song to go around. |
 |
|
A live
reindeer
was there to delight kids. A great photo opportunity for parents. |
 |
|
Horse drawn sleighs ran through the evening. |
 |
|
Then
there were the village singers with Christmas carols. |
 |
|
The Lake
Country Parish put on a nativity scene to honor the birth of Jesus. |
 |
|
Joseph
and Mary were there with the newborn Jesus. |
 |
| Fires, by the City of Nisswa, kept visitors warm as temperatures cooled off that night. |
Quote of the day:
Always fun to visit this celebration. Mark
