We were thrilled when the keeper returned home from the walk. But she had come home with a new purpose. No, not to prepare the class or talk. No, she had lights on her mind. She had seen all of her neighbors' lights up already, and decided that she needed to take advantage of the dry day to put up the most difficult lights. So we watched her for a while...with the maps she had designed last year for what cords and how many light strings go where. Then we napped. But she wrapped the weeping cherry and the rhodies in lights, and threw out defective strings. She has more to hang, and we won't be turning them on till Advent starts, but it appears we are ahead of the curve. And then there is the squirrel issue. They ate our Halloween lights. Will they show more respect for Christmas?
