Twas the Day before Christmas Eve...


Walking around in the drizzle - though the day is quite mild
I see...


that the artist Berch has decorated the barber shop...


that there are lots of wet berries on the holly on 22nd Street


and balls hanging from the trees.


The florist on the corner of 8th and 22nd is bursting with color.


The man handing out Metro bears a strong resemblance to St Nick.


Misty windows at Le Granne


and Santa's helpers at Bergamot


with charming hats.


Back at home the usual crew decorates the desk.
Remember trolls?


MERRY CHRISTMAS

    Oh Elizabeth, I do hope that the heavy rain stops before tomorrow morning. But...all the same, this post of yours really does NYC proud, showing so many holiday images, bright and merry.

    Happy Christmas to you and yours. xo

    Thanks, again, for a Christmas tour of the city. My niece is here from N.Y. for Christmas. Then, she is on to her new life in France.
    I thought N.Y. was far away but France is even farther!
    Merry Christmas to you and your family and, of course, Buster.
    P.S. I just got Jane In Winter and will start it after the festivities tonight.

      But France is rather marvelous!
      What a good excuse to visit there - though it is indeed a long trip!

      So glad you are enjoying it. It's not really a novel but a true story in novel form about my two mothers...!
