brooksville: In Brooksville, Florida It's Christmas Time Little Baby with Elvis - 12/08/12 06:29 AM
In Brooksville, Florida It's Christmas Time Little Baby with Elvis Today was the annual Christmas Parade in Brooksville, Florida, an event that always draws a huge crowd of spectators.  For 2 1/2 hours floats, dance troupes, and bands are making their way through downtown Brooksville.
With temperatures in the low 70s, the streets were lined thick with parade watchers.  In front of the historic Hernando County Courthouse various vendors were doing good business selling kettle corn, drinks, cookies, and a variety of crafts and gifts.  Here's a little taste of what it was like this morning, I have more photos and video to edit!

Just as many visitors, when I first came to Florida and noticed this strange gray stuff hanging off trees and power lines, I wondered what it was and why it was there. 
Unfamiliar with it, I found it rather unappealing.  It eerily reminded me of cob webs --- something I could tolerate maybe for Halloween but otherwise could not understand why it wasn't cleaned up.

Having lived in the South for many years now, I find that I have gotten used to the gray stuff that is called Spanish Moss. 
In fact, I even discovered that I can find some strange beauty in … (12 comments)
