The other day, a co-worker, knowing that I lived for two winters in Florida (back years ago) and had spent some of January last year in Florida, recently asked me "how do Floridians decorate for Christmas?"
Well....it's a little late, but you don't need snow to celebrate the Holidays.
Orange decorations are a natural.
As is a palm tree with a present attached.
Not sure about a shoe, but why not?
Next to a Mexican restaurant is a cactus decoration.
Meanwhile, back in the Southern Tier of New York...
Day 8 of the Ultimate Blog Challenge #blogboost.
Joining Sandee at #WordlessWednesday.
I was in Florida in December 1972 and December 1991. Saw a lot of santa and his sleigh and snowmen and etc., which looked so out of place. I also saw a lot of tropical decor, which was great.
ReplyDeleteI would love to spend a Christmas where it's warm. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ♥
I too would very much like to spend a Christmas in a warm place with palm trees and oranges ready to be picked. After all, oranges were the traditional Christmas gift.
ReplyDeleteIt's just a little different.
ReplyDeleteNow, that's something I know. Decorating for Christmas when it's definitely not going to snow. Lights go on the palm trees...
ReplyDeleteVery creative decorations!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of my first winter in Long Beach. It was very disconcerting to be sitting at the beach, in 80 degree weather, seeing Xmas decorations!
ReplyDeleteI guess the shoe makes as much sense as the stocking. And why are some people starting to associate penguins with Christmas? There are no penguins at the north pole.
ReplyDeleteThere is no mention of snow for the first Christmas. It may get cold in Bethlehem and frost is possible, snow is rare. It is in a desert after all.
