Christmas isn't a season.  It's a 
feeling..........Edna Ferber
And I'm feeling the spirit as I watch the 
villagers scuttling around, moving and decorating throughout the village.  
Twinkling lights, wrapped packages, colorful Christmas balls, rag tied Christmas 
trees, wreaths, and so much more unique decorating in front of the 
studios.....really, it's enough to wear a dog out just lying here watching 
them.
Balboa Park's Annual December Nights is scheduled for December 6th and 7th, 
from 5 PM to 11 PM.....the museums will be free to enter, carolers, food booths, 
Santas, and much entertainment will be throughout the Park.
Parking is at a premium.  Valet service 
is available.  Shuttle service is available.
Dress warmly....
This is a family event....but if your dog 
is handsome, bring him along too....as I get older, just looking at handsome 
dogs is enough for me...perks the old fur up.
I will be eagerly awaiting your company 
in Spanish Village Art Center.  We will be festooned with colorful Christmas 
decoration, twinkling lights, the aroma of hot apple cider and freshly made 
popcorn, arts & crafts booths throughout the patio, live entertainment, food 
booths, a jolly  Santa booth for kids with an agenda, and lots of happy village 
artists looking forward to sharing the ambience and spirit of the season with 
you.
Franklin, the arachnophobic rat is 
eagarly anticipating the free yummies dropped on the floor, while Erika the rag 
cat is anticipating what Franklin would taste like....can't we just all get 
along???  Brandon my poodle buddy and I will be randomly greeting everyone, and 
humbly accepting handouts to munch.....although, belly rubs, head pats, and 
compliments are always appreciated.  I will be wearing a bright, fluffly, red 
bow on my collar, and Brandon will be wearing a large, green, bow tie on his 
collar.
There's a saying ' He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it 
under a tree'....Roy L. Smith........however, Franklin, Erika, Brandon, me and 
the other 4-legged members of the village look forward to all the goodies left 
on the grounds....waiting for us to store it away.....that, I guess, are our 
gifts from the Christmas season.
Well, come and celebrate with 
us!
Remember to keep the Spirit of 
Christmas all year round....and remind my brothers and sisters not to pee on the 
tree.
I love you all!
Bella
