We have a very rainy Thursday morning here. Some parts of the country are experiencing blizzard conditions. While a little snow for a white Christmas might be nice, blizzards cause big problems. I hope you will take care, whatever your weather conditions are.
Recently we were able to go to a nearby town for a visit to a theater there. Just as in most towns these days, theaters that were once very lively have given way to developments in the suburbs with shopping malls and larger multi-screen capabilities. This may have happened where you live.
In this case, someone has purchased the former theater building and transformed it into quite a showplace. It is available for private functions; however, on the evening we were there, oddly enough, nothing else was scheduled, and we - along with the Country Couple - were the only ones in the building! We enjoyed coffee, tea, and ice cream treats - all delicious.
There was some marvelous Christmas decor that I want to share with you today.

The last picture doesn't pick up the snow that was being "recycled" through, just like a fountain recycles the water. I had never seen a tree that would have falling snow going through in that way.

Then, there was this lovely bench!

The ice cream was delicious, too!:-)
I send along wishes for a good day to each of you! Next post - all about progress!
Thank you for reading. I appreciate your comments.
What a beautiful place this must be! I commend the owners for trying to keep an old building, from the wrecking ball.
ReplyDeleteHope many people frequent it, much of the time!
Nellie, That is the sweetest place. I loved the trees. The bench is wonderful:):) We are having rain with snow approaching. I pretty much can do without snow. Stay warm. xo,Susie

ReplyDeleteWe had a front blow in, in the wee hours and the wind hasn't stopped howling. I feel windblown and I'm inside! Hope your weather stays manageable!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great place to spend some time. Nice that it wasn't torn down!!
ReplyDeleteThe first part of the day was nice here but now it has started raining. Just rain here but up at Happy Trails 8-12 inches of snow are expected. We will not be going up there this week or probably the next either!!
Oh Nellie...What beautiful photos! Great job! Loved seeing all the beautiful decor. Thanks for sharing.

What fun decorations. That ice cream bench is fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteOh Nellie what a neat place to visit! The trees are all so pretty! I've never seen one with falling "snow"...how cool! We had a little snow here, so guess we are having a 'white' Christmas! But our temps re going to be very "cold"!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this wonderful post!
