Fun Christmas Parade and lighting of the Kent Circle Christmas Tree.  This committee works very hard to make the parade and lighting a fun and wonderful event.  It even snows at the circle.  Thank you again.

Early December sunset

On Wednesday, the sunset was so incredible.  The red sky with the reflection on the ocean was so serene and relaxing.  Grateful for where we live.

Fun dining
