A Christmas Stroll Through Georgetown

This year’s Christmas Stroll in Georgetown was another very well-attended affair.    Arriving an hour early on Saturday, I still had to troll around a bit before finally landing a parking spot.   Once on the scene, all was well.  The weather, a little chilly for the morning parade, moderated nicely throughout the day.   Compared to last year’s temperatures in the 20s, this was paradise.   The city indicated this year’s parade would be smaller, but it sure looked packed to me.   After its absence from last year’s Stroll, the popular Bethlehem Village, hosted by Georgetown Church of Nazarene, was back in place.   NewChurch Georgetown was back for another year with their Whoo Village, complete with the Grinch and offerings of stylish Whoo hairstyles.   Getting her Whoo hair done, 4-year-old Jordan Salyers, casting a menacing look at my camera lens, proclaimed “I don’t like having my picture taken!”   That said, she seem quite pleased with the end result she viewed in the mirror.   The courthouse lawn was a lively place, too, filled with colorful hula hoops provided by Circle of Play.   And Madison Tally, at the grand age of one year, looked a little like a human Christmas tree as she danced around the square in her colorful outfit.   This event is a lot of work, but much fun.  These photos were taken for the Williamson County Sun.
