Christmas down by the Mumford River
Another square for BeckyB
In downtown Uxbridge, they have decorated the park. I think this is the first time I’ve seen more than the snowflakes. They’ve been around for a few years. But this year, we have reindeer, an elf, a couple of snow guys and a big red sleigh. That’s huge for little old Uxbridge.
Since we have a park and a river and two dams in the middle of town, it’s quite decorative. Since we were getting dentistry done next door, I got lucky and took some pictures.
Time is a ‘wasting! It will be Christmas next Tuesday!

It looks like a nice day! (I did not look too closely at the snow and mud!) 😉
It’s also looking a lot more like Christmas! 🙂
Happy Winter Solstice! 🙂 (Summer one down here – 41Deg C today! (106F))

A rather cheery place to go to the dentist.

It is. Usually, there’d be snow on the ground, but this year, everything is just mud.

So cute, and looks a lot greener than the English Uxbridge!

English Uxbridge (our twin town, by the way) is really just a close suburb of London, right? It was probably a real town, once. We have a lot of towns like that that have really become Boston. They were originally their “own” places. There’s another BIG Uxbridge in Canada, which I think (not sure) is near Toronto.

It’s on the outskirts of London, about same distance out as Heathrow. You are correct to call it a suburb though as it a London borough. It has quite a history and as you say once would have been a small town. Cities encroach the world over!

Cities absorb neighboring towns — who aren’t always happy about it. But that’s the way the world runs.

Nice decorations, Marilyn. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

At least the town made an effort to fix itself up this year. And it does look pretty. I think this is as pretty as I’ve ever seen it.

Uxbridge looks lovely! Those of us in places like Winchendon understand how hard it can be to find the funding for elves and sleighs….!

It has been a long time coming. There’s SO little money in the treasury, each purchase is a big deal.

They paid cash for their last fire engine. Who pays CASH for a fire engine? It used up every penny in the treasury. Ten years later, we still have no money.

He is. There are two of him with their arms a little different and they are both quite adorable, in a plastic sort of way.

Yes, I thought it didn’t look cardboard or is it?
