Falmouth Green-Christmas Splendor

Christmas comes but once a year.

 

There is still time to visit the Falmouth Town Green, where the Christmas displays are well worth the drive. I have been frequenting the spot for about 23 years now, and it is still very much the way it was then. As a teenager I'd visit the area, having lived nearby.  Main St. was  a little different-Troy Clarkson was a freshman selectman.

   The Town has always worked to make the place special this time of year.  Falmouth Center has a quintessential New England quality to it and the Christmas displays only add to that ambience.

I'd like to share some pictures from last night's visit.  The displays can be seen for a few more days.
