Falls Park Light Festival



The other night, Josh Marley and I went downtown to Falls Park to check out their annual holiday season display. We really went to kill some time and to get some fresh air. We werent expecting anything out of the ordinary. When we got there, I think its fair to say that we were blown away. They had holiday music blasting as soon as we opened the car door. Literally every single tree in the park was dripping with lights. I did not realize how many trees were in that park untill they were set ablaze by the Parks and Rec department. When we got closer, we saw that the main part of the waterfall was glowing blue red and purple. Marley was in awe. She couldn't decide where to look first. And the music was right up her alley. Nothing like "Frosty the Snowman" to put your dancing shoes on for. We went up to the observation tower and the park looked simply beautiful. I wish we would have taken our families down there while they were in town. I think they would have enjoyed it. But instead they will have to live vicariously through this blog. (once again.)
