Oh yes, pitch dark. Sun sets at a little after 4:00 these days. At least the snow makes it seem brighter.

Ah! I do like such Christmas houses. I've seen them when I lived in California, there were even neighbourhoods that did competitions, who had the prettiest Christmas house.. I don't care that it may be 'cheap or cheesy', I find it innocent and lovely. Lights rule. (except for the environment, but it's only Christmas once a year anyway)

Joanne: Fun, isn't it? I think the photo doesn't quite capture how extensive this display is, alas.
