It's Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas...Everywhere You Go

 
One of my favorite places to photograph is on The Bluff. Click HERE to read other posts about this historical landmark, located just a few miles from where I live.
 
 
The Texas Park is gearing up for it's annual Festival of Lights.
 
 
Decorations are in the process of being installed and strands of lights are ready to dazzle us in the evening.
 
 
Red bows accent yards and yards of garland.
 
The Kreische Historial Home will be open on the week ends before Christmas, with lights burning brightly.
 
 
A rear view of the old Smoke House.
 
 
The park is a photographers' feast...
 
 
Natural stone dots the countryside.
 
 
One lone summer flower holds on, after near freezing weather this past week.
 
 
Shrubbery, with red berries, add to the Christmas atmosphere.
 
 
The Bluff rises 220 feet to give this magnificent view. The river winds its' way through the small community below.
 
 
Beautiful views each step of the way.
 
 
Hope you enjoyed my afternoon on The Bluff.
And to think...there is no admission charge!
