In case you are wondering about the layout of my blog, I have been playing again! I love to arrange and design these things even though I am not terribly creative. The current photo is inappropriately Christmas themed. We already did Christmas, didn't we? I think so.
Anyway, during the Christmas season many vintage photos of San Antonio, Texas were posted on a facebook page devoted to San Antonio memories. Since San Antonio is my home town I decided to save a few of the photos and this is one. I remember Christmas in downtown so well -- this was taken in the 40's -- before my time -- but it hadn't changed much when I was a child. I remember all these stores and the decorations that spanned the streets. It was a magical time!
So, since it is still January, technically winter although hard to tell here in DFW with the 70-80 degree days we have been having, I thought I would share for a few days. It won't last long, though, because I love to change these things around!

So, are we going to hear some of those childhood memories of magic? (This is what is called a large hint.)
well, actually, the most magical thing about my childhood Christmas's was going downtown at night and looking at the lights. It was always reasonably warm in December in San Antonio so we didn't have the whole "white Christmas" thing.
