Elves appear to be working their Christmas magic on the South Street bridge in Townsend.

[Very nice]

This is so cool. This is the kind of thing you like to hear about, especially this time of year. Hats off to whoever is doing it.

A positive story with no posters criticizing it or being negative.
This kind of stuff makes the holidays a little happier.

had it been spray painted, then you would have seen some of the more negative comments - no matter how lovely.

Had you been born the opposite gender, then you would have seen more attention.
Let's stick to the facts.

Is it that time of year all ready? Shit I need to go shopping and put my self deeper in the hole. Buy things for people they don't need just so I can feel better about me. Quickly lets decorate the bride ?

[its all good]

What a wonderful story! People of the world can feel strong that many terrific people are all around us! To the elf in charge, you truly are the spirit that makes the world go 'round. God Bless!

Wonderful, Terrific, Awesome, Fantastic! To the Elf that cam from the North Pole to decorate this location..."THANKS". You made the day for many people, an the area is buzzing with joy! Yes.there will always be the few negative folks, but that's ok...deep down they too appreciate your hard work and Christmas spirit! Merry Christmas to all!

[Question]

Is it legal to "decorate" public property in observance of a religiously based holiday? Would everyone be so holly jolly if it were a Muslim decoration? After all, this is America and that is the largest religion.
