The Christmas House …

LPR is pleased to see that the Christmas House in Torrington is back for another Christmas season. The accompanying photos, taken on December 8, perhaps
indicate that a visit will be delightful experience.

Hours are 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., inside, and
6 p.m. to 11 p.m. outside.

Christmas Village …

This celebration of Christmas is also located in Torrington, CT. It opened December 11, a few days after this photo was taken. You can visit their website by following this link. Christmas Village.

Magical Thomaston …

LPR got this photo of the Thomaston Opera House clock tower, viewed through a Christmas wreath on December 8 -- before dark. People driving to Torrington on Route 8 will notice, above Exit 38, to their left, the lights of the season that seem to transform Thomaston into a
set for a Christmas movie. Thomaston, nighttime, in the Christmas season is magical.

Santa Claus …

Next week LPR plans to post more photos of Santa taken at his visit to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.
