This is the town square in Edgefield, South Carolina (it's 8 miles from where I live, and it's the County seat).



Post holiday scenes from where you live.

Nothing as extravagant as above but I spotted a shopping trolley, with one wheel missing. It had some tinsel draped over it.

Nice. I love to see the seasonal spirit on display.

I don't know about my town but my residential neighborhood is pretty dark. Very few neighbors set up outside lights or displays for Xmas. For the first time in five or so years I've decorated the living room for Christmas. This is the first time I'll have Christmas Day off in five years too!

To us more reserved Norwegians, US holiday decorations often come off as a bit overblown and gaudy. You do find the rare example of it here too (especially in rural areas), but mostly it's just strings of white/yellow lights scattered across hedges; sometimes in windows or balconies. Plenty of such decorations in my neighbourhood at the moment, which -- with the remnants of snow -- make it very moody.

Yeah, not a fan of all these tacky giant plastic blow up figures scattered over everyone's front yards and roof tops. I do like a good light show though.

That reminds me, earlier today, I walked past a condom with some glitter on it!

And within minutes you were able to surpass the previous Post Of The Month! You had a good but short run on top DOGBELLE.

Doesn't this belong in Things You Find On The Side Of The Curb during Xmas time?

It may have started out on the curb but it looked like it had been kicked about a bit smile

I should have mentioned that they have a lights display contest every year in their community. The ones I posted above only represent about 1/4 of what I saw. I would have taken more photos but I was freezing and wanted to get back inside, hence some of the blurry pictures from my shaking hands!

Somebody here has an inflatable decoration in front. It is shaped like a camping trailer, only made out of gingerbread. There's an engine chugging next to the structure, but why?

Because every few minutes, the door to the trailer opens and an inflatable Santa pops his head out the door.

My but they are reaching for things to sell us, if this is the scenario they came up with!

Is it possible to be inflatable and made of gingerbread?

I took this picture 5 minutes ago, from my balcony. This is the most common type of outdoors Christmas lighting in Norway/Oslo. I don't know if you can glean it, but you'll see some white lights on the hedge to right, and the neighbour's tree (somewhat hidden behind one of the branches) also has some white lights. There are no multitude of colours, gingerbread men, Santas or inflated figures here. big grin

Very picturesque, I so miss snowy winters.

I'm from San Mateo, California and I remember when they put tinsel decorations on the streetlights downtown in the late '60s and most of the '70s. I wish I had some photos to post, because they don't do that anymore.
