Festival of Lights

VIDEO #277

Piano Instrumental

Even though it was freezing cold out, we didn't want to miss out on the Grotto's Annual Festival of Lights. Half a million lights and multiple performances a day make it the largest choral festival in the Pacific Northwest. Lucky us, we could walk on over from the house. Cinnamon whiskey and hot chocolate is a great combo for this kind of event, warms the belly and the lights get prettier with every sip, just a little tip.

Song - "Boadicea" by Enya to "Ready or Not" by The Fugees

This video is so random, kind of like the neighborhood I'm in now. We've got Frolic's live dancers, Ed's House of Gems for all you rock collectors, Park City Pub aka the PCP, The Rocky Butte Pub (however the E in Butte has been removed from the sign), and then of course The Grotto. A 62-acre Catholic shrine and botanical garden. Makes sense, right? So, like a good son, I thought I'd show my mom some of these wonderful attractions.
