Rotary Lights

Yum
One of the closest cities to me in Wisconsin has a wonderful tradition that has been going on for twenty years. Their beautiful Riverside Park, on the Mississippi River, is transformed into a winter wonderland of lights. 

The Rotary Lights is a fundraiser to "Feed the Hungry"


There are more than 3 millions lights on in this park!

You never know what you will find in the lights.
 
Maybe even a spaceship!

I love the snowman. He is one of my favorites, year after year.

The prettiest fireplace I have seen all season!

If you are ever in my neck of the woods, between Thanksgiving and Christmas, 
you should visit the Rotary Lights!

  1. Lovely lights - we don't really have a tradition like this in Auckland - other than one road in the city called Franklin Rd where all the residents go to town with lights - and suffer major traffic jams in December as a result! Cheers from Carole's Chatter

  3. When I saw Big Rigs and Wisconsin I had to follow your blog; my sister and her hubby are team truck drivers in Wisconsin. This light display is magical.
