Christmas 2019

First Christmas in Fallbrook for the Andersons and thus a very different Christmas for me, too.

I had never attended the annual Fallbrook Christmas Parade until this year. Below is video (5:12) from the December 7 parade. It’s held in the evening, which accounts for the rather dim video. Evening is more convenient for folks, I guess, and closing Main Street on the weekend would be problematic, but evening is also good for showing off the Christmas lighting.

Actual Christmas was also different. For only the second time (the first time being when Julia was living here), we had a tree. For the first time, I wore an attractive(?) Christmas sweater. And instead of the usual Dillon-and-me brunch, with chorizo and nopales (cactus) scrambled eggs, it was opening of gifts and Christmas dinner, featuring ham sent by Annie and Gordon.

Here’s video (2:58).
