    Looked out the window this evening and noticed that a couple of our neighbors still have their Christmas lights up and lit.

    Is it just me, or does anyone else think it's a little late for them.

    Or does anyone have anything to confess...:laugh:

    It's not just you. In our neighborhood my wife and I have a little bet on the over/under on when certain neighbors will remove their Christmas wreath from the front of their house. Sometimes it goes into March.

    I think the white lights on a house look great all winter! Lights in the windows too.

    Why associate lights at Christmas with Christmas lights?

    Why not celebrate year round??

    Not to change the subject Arbo, but I was musing over your Swedish saying (in your footnote): "Oh, that more people was as their dogs..." ;-)
