Sugarplums

The Christmas parade took place in downtown Bristol tonight. 7:00 p.m. start. A night parade - nice.

The temperature was cooling down after a temperate and sunny day - 37 degrees at parade time. Just like it should be for a Christmas parade - but without the snow. No snow a good or bad thing? I'll leave that to you to decide but I know the city budget appreciated that fact.

This event ushers in the month of December when visions of sugarplums dance in the crowds heads as they await the magic of the season ahead.

A large crowd was gathered for a great time. The kids lined the curbs - they were everywhere.

Thanks to Lisa Meadows and the staff of the Bristol Chamber of Commerce for hosting a great event in the way they always do - with execution, class, and a lot of spirit and fun. Merry Christmas
