December can be dark and cold, but the pretty Christmas lights can help brighten the darkness. Enjoy this picture of our local blue tree on our town common. The tradition of blue lights has been going on for over 60 years.
We had some panic a few years ago when the tree where the blue lights were strung had to be cut down, but another tree was brought in to take its place.
Wishing everyone the joy and peace of the holiday season.
Enjoy!

I’m speculating that the tree had to be felled because of disease or weakness; it is good that another was planted in its place. It makes for a lovely community celebration.
Are the lights always blue?

Hi,
Your supposition is correct, the first tree had some sort of disease. And yes, the lights are always blue. 🙂
