Random Xmas Stuff I Seen


Bah Humbug, I am not a Xmas person but here are some photos I have taken of Xmas stuff that I have seen while getting my steps in:


These two below are from the window display at Macy's at Union Square in San Francisco:




The tree inside Neiman Marcus in San Francisco





When I was with my 19-year-old son, we stumbled across something called SantaCon being held in Union Square. As he described it, it is a bunch of people dressing up as Santa and various other Xmas characters out partying in a public place:





But as things change in the world, there is always the Xmas tree at Union Square that is a standard and has been all my life:


So Bah Humbug

    Thanks for the photos. I like the reindeer on the door in the wreath the best.

    I spent a few days there for work back in 1989, and stayed at the Union Square Hotel. The hotel left much to be desired, but the Macy's folks were great to work with.

    I love how people are dressed up as presents! Christmas decorations are the best, aren't they!

    It's fun and sometimes very creative the things that you see when the holiday season is on it's highest. Thank you for sharing these great pictures, I like the paper reindeer.

    Happy Holiday Season!

    Some of those things are just so WAY excess, which makes me feel rather bah humbug too. I like the simpler things too - like that Neiman Marcus tree is beautiful. I do love Christmas and decorations and lights - but over the top just kinda subtracts from the wonder maybe.
