The tradition of the lighting of luminarios during the holidays is something that all residents of the Upper Valley and Westside can share regardless of culture or religion

When you find a whole neighborhood or at least a block of homes with the luminarios it is a sight to behold. Now, even with the use of electric luminarios and mixing them with the small star lights... it is a very aesthetically pleasing display.

Instead, many homes are lit as if they were amusement parks with no regard for their neighbors and the look is amusing at best.

The season is one of encouraging warmth, togetherness and making sure that it is wonderful to encourage others with an inviting light display.
