A couple of snow flurries throughout the day. Cold, too. Enough to engender the holiday spirit. Thanks to all who came to shop . . . The HHA Candlelight House Tour tickets have arrived. $18. Homes are concentrated in the Midtown area between Forster and Maclay Streets. This year's event is dedicated to Frank Pines who originated the house tour 38 years ago. Allison Hill residences will be featured next year if all goes as envisioned . . . Today's out-of-town visitors were from Washington, D.C. They had seen us on that TripAdvisor site. They apologized straight away; they were not here to shop. But one of the reviews said this was a good place for info and they were looking for a family restaurant and advice on other tourist attractions. Maybe we have a future after all albeit with a different emphasis. The old Harrisburg Tourist Office in Shipoke (once a gas station) will soon be empty again, by the way; The Greater Harrisburg Arts Council is moving its offices to Cameron Street . . . Godson JJ has begun to decorate Uncle Ronn's Christmas tree; he helps with it every year. Earlier on the tree was "bottom heavy" with ornaments, but this year he is taller so we are looking good in the middle as well. By next year he will be able to do the whole thing by himself . . .
