Light Parade


Last night Annapolis had its 24th Annual Lights Parade on Spa Creek. It was brisk outside, but 30,000 people came to watch over 50 boats participate. They watched from City Dock, Spa Creek Bridge, Annapolis Yacht Club, Fleet Reserve and side streets to see the glittering boats pass by during the two-hour extravaganza.

The City is festively dressed with trees, lights and ribbons, and downtown is just bustling with activity. We had one Midnight-Madness shopping night, and another one is planned for next week. The stores offer a variety of refrehments, and people obviously love shopping in this warm welcoming "days of old" kind of neighborhood.

Living in a Historic Town is always a wonderful place to visit, but it is at this time of year that those of us who live here realize how grateful we should be to live on the Bay in this wonderful Historic Town and be able to enjoy it every day of the year.
Happy Holidays to All!
