Here is a picture of a Poinsettia for Poinsettia day which I just recently found out was yesterday, in honor of Joel Roberts Poinsett (1779 - 1851), the first United States Ambassador to Mexico appointed by President John Quincy Adams in the 1820’s.  The anniversary of his death was established by act of congress more than 150 years ago as National Poinsettia Day.  [...]

By Jon • Dec 12th, 2006 • Category: Holiday

I got a pleasant surprise listening to the radio this morning I found out that apparently today is Gingerbread house day, and what was my picture of the day, but a gingerbread house.  I could not have even planed that any better if I tried.  Although I did miss that today is also Poinsettia Day.  Appearently:

Picture of The Day-Gingerbread House

By Jon • Dec 12th, 2006 • Category: Holiday, Picture of the Day

This is a picture of the gingerbread house that my mom and I put together the other day.  I made the icicle on the side, which I think look alright; but it is hard to force the sugar through that special plastic thing they give you.  Maybe, next I’ll try making another gingerbread house sometime [...]

Picture of The Day-Christmas Lights

Today’s picture is more Christmas lights.  I really liked how these particular lights were strung high up in the trees although you cannot see the trees in the picture you can probably tell they are up in the trees.

 Unofficially Christmas Lane officially I think this is still Bruster Dr, but map-quest is intelligent enough to find it by the name Christmas Lane. Most of the houses in this drive put up real nice displays for Christmas, although there were some that did not bother to put up any lights.

Picture of the Day-Santa and reindeer

By Jon • Dec 2nd, 2006 • Category: Holiday, Picture of the Day

This is a picture of Santa and his reindeer at the Warwick mall.  I took this picture then a security guard told me that I cannot take pictures in the mall.  When I asked him why he said it is private property.  Go figure.  After I got home I looked up the rules, and a mall may be private property, but it is [...]
