  5. Taking down decorations is never as much fun as putting them up, but it has to be done. Great photos, Bill!

  9. That's a big job. It's always much more exciting to see them being put in place before Christmas....but...the old saying----what goes up must come down. Diana

  12. For a city or town that's probably a big job. It's hard enough at home!

  13. Interesting to see them putting down the white paths for the big tires to roll upon...maybe to avoid some kind of damage to the surface of the pavement?

  15. A big job. I see they are protecting the pavement from the rubber on those big tires.

  16. These city workers have the right tool for the job. I'm sure that high lift can reach the highest lights on the Christmas tree.

  17. It is over. We could still use the lights to brighten things up at this time of year, Bill.

  28. It's that time of year, to put all the decorations away.

  29. Para facilitar a montagem e desmontagem da decoração de Natal, o ideal é que a celebração natalina aconteça três vezes ao ano. rsrsrsrs
