The Leg Lamp


Last night was Old Fashioned Christmas in downtown Grafton. The theme this year was from the movie A Christmas Story. You know, Ralphie, the Red Rider BB Gun, etc. So.....

Several years ago I bought a leg lamp for my brother for his birthday. He is a HUGE fan of that movie. Just like the movie, my sister-in-law isn't very fond of it. Every year right after Thanksgiving, my brother lovingly places the lamp in his front window. It stays illuminated until Christmas for the whole neighborhood to see.

Since the theme this year went with the lamp, I asked if I could borrow it for my front window at the studio for Friday night. My sister in law, Connie, said I could come get it and keep it as long as I needed! I picked it up on Thursday night and will return it to him tomorrow, so he's not without it for long! It worked out perfectly, I think, for me and Connie! Thanks, Paul. It was a big hit and people loved looking at it in the window!
