A Southern Christmas
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
While visiting my folks in Florida this month, I snapped this photo of Holiday decorations, Florida style. This home is on Country Club Drive at the Spruce Creek Fly-in, a gated community with its own airport, in Port Orange.
Click on the photo for a closeup of all those BALLS....
Ho, Ho, Ho!
