Last night we went to the Dickens Holiday fete in downtown Fayetteville. It is the kickoff to their Christmas season and the lighting of their lights up and down the Main Street.
This was a pretty church we saw coming into town.
Pansies are blooming here!
Everyone got a candle to hold...
There was a parade down the Main Street with bagpipes, a horse drawn carriage and people dressed up as Dickens characters.
There were throngs of people; at some point their was a countdown from 10 to one, and everybody held their candles up...
...and on one the lights came on and the fireworks began!
Steve saw this sign as we were making our way back to our car...
