The Winter Walk of Lights at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens in Northern Virginia:
More images from the Winter Walk of Lights HERE.
This web site has many photos taken at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens during other seasons of the year. This particular photo shows the gazebo in the spring.
So much beauty in the world! I hope that you will take a few moments to explore the above links. It seems to me that we spend too much time dwelling on politics — and the ugliness and the divisiveness thereof.
"Winter" Walk of Lights.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm.
So they leave them on until the Vernal Equinox?
Meadowlark Gardens is part of the Fairfax County Parks System. As a result, you won't find the word Christmas being used. Political correctness rules the day. **sigh**
ReplyDeleteThe above said, the displays there are outstanding.
The Baltimore & National Zoo's usually do a "Zoo Light's" here every year, too. Access to a thermos full of hot cocoa is a prerequisite for attending, though... ;)
ReplyDeleteThat is stunning! I really need to get to the Chicago Botanical Gardens this year!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, my friend!

Displays of lights against the night sky always cast a spell. I just do a subtle little multicolored tree in a side window and a spray of multicolored lights threaded through a wrought iron sculpture near my front door, but just that little bit really does transform the neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteSome people criticize displays of lights as vain and a foolish waste of money.
Not I!
I've always seen them as sign that says the Christ Child is welcome in each home that displays Christmas lights.
If it weren't for the golden lights on the tree to the left, the second photo could represent the Entrance to the Snow Queen's Palace.
