Christmas Decor


Our street is one of the most highly decorated during the Christmas season. One neighbor, Bogey Bernie, does an especially outstanding display (see picture above of this year's effort) and usually wins one of the holiday contest prizes. Bernie is retired and enjoys outdoor activities. In warm weather, he avidly pursues his major interests: playing golf, washing vehicles, and mowing the lawn. He spends a lot of time golfing at COGC (see picture). He also likes clean vehicles and washes them on an almost daily basis. We have a friendly lawn mowing competition and take pride in our manicured landscapes. Because Bernie is from Kansas, he, his wife, and his sons are all Jayhawk (University of Kansas) fans. (I think a Jayhawk is a cross between a bluejay and a chicken hawk.) Bogey Bernie is a dedicated follower of my blog, and Henri and I both want to thank him and his family for their all year holiday spirit and making our street Candy Cane Lane.
