Keith's Ramblings

For Wordless Wednesday and bloghops various!

.

.

Most of the shops in our town are independently run. They are a competitive bunch, never moreso than during the run up to Christmas when they compete to see who can come up with the best window display. Here are some of my favourites from this year’s lot!

    Beautiful photos, Keith. I love all the festive cheer in the stores and their windows. Love those three peach- pink trees with lights…super cool. I never seen a tree that color.

    What an amazing stroll through your town, Keith! 💖 All of the shopkeepers have embraced the holiday spirit beautifully, with their imaginative creations. 🎄Also nice to see messages about helping the homeless, a serious problem everywhere.

      They certainly have, just as they do year after year! Helping the homeless is something our town takes very seriously.

    The window displays are absolutely charming! 🎄✨

    I love how independent shops put so much heart into their decorations .

    You can really feel the creativity and friendly competition.

    Your town must look magical this time of year!

    All the adorable little shops in towns are so fun to see. Here we have the big malls and huge stores, no more charming windows to look at. You have to find a small town to see anything close to what you have photographed.

      We have some big shops but they are located on a retail park out of town – thank goodness
