Enchanted Forest of Light

Hey!  So, I've been out sick this past week.  No, nothing dire.  A cold. A bloody cold.  And I'm still at least somewhat plagued by it, which should make flying overseas in a bit under 24 hours from now a real joy.  Ugh.  Ah well.  I will do my best to stay cheerful and snot-free.

I've mostly laid low this past weekend, missing out on Conrad's office's holiday party on Friday night and then a friends' party last night.  Van and Olive did come over yesterday to provide some company, but mostly it's been reading and listening to Christmas music.

We did get me out of the condo today, though.  A walk to Starbucks this morning - easy enough.  But this evening we headed for an early dinner in La Cañada Flintridge and then on to Descanso Gardens for the Enchanted Forest of Light holiday light show display.  A lovely evening all in all.  I didn't get photos at The Proper, but it was nice to get back there after all these years and bring Van for the first time.  Meanwhile, it was my first time at the gardens, and I know I need to get back there in daylight and when more is in bloom.  For tonight, though, the light show was enough, augmented by a little candy floss!

Some photos from the Enchanted Forest for sharing, then.  I'll try to blog whilst overseas this coming week, even brief postings.  For now, enjoy the photos from tonight!
