Here are some photos that capture how the woven twigs of Patrick Dougherty’s installation outside Highfield Hall became the inspiration for the holiday decorations inside. Captivating! This is Day One of Twelve Days of Christmas at Highfield Hall that I’ll be posting through the 25th. If you’re here, go to Highfield and enjoy this beautiful display in person. If you’re not, this will be your personal tour.
It was 41 and sunny Sunday, with no breeze, possibly one of the best weather conditions in a while for the annual parade. This has to be one of the best parades, or maybe it’s just me, who still wakes up every day happy to be in this just-about-perfect town, Falmouth, MA.
So many happy faces! From the fire engines to the kids, from the marching bands to the marching dogs, from the clowns to the funny cars, from the Citizen of the Year to Newcomers, Neighborhood Falmouth, and Gosnold, this was one heckuva parade! Heartfelt thanks to Michael, Maura, Susan and everyone at the Chamber, who make this happen every year!
Listen to the Brass Choir of the Falmouth Town Band, graciously braving the cold to lead us in carols. Thank you, musicians and director! You’re intrepid, generous, and A1 citizens of this fair town!
Santa has arrived in Falmouth, and is taking requests. Holidays by the Sea is happening!
