We aren’t able to make it up there to see the Ice Sculptures this year.  Here are highlights from last year’s Ice Sculptures in Uptown Westerville.

Here are some holiday photos from the Upper Arlington Historic District from 2014.

Tonight marks the first night of Hanukkah, the 25th night of Kislev in the Jewish calendar. The City of Bexley’s Menorah Lighting will be virtual on Sunday, the fourth night of Hanukkah.  Meanwhile, here are highlights from 2018′s Lighting held in Jeffrey Park, which saw a helicopter make a drop of dreidels during the Menorah Lighting.

Here are highlights from the holidays at the Easton Town Center in Columbus, Ohio from the 2020 Holiday Season, which was drastically different. For example, the Annual Tree Lighting was cancelled and Santa went Virtual. With a ban on Mass Gatherings, you could see why nobody was huddled close together at either one of the THREE Christmas Trees at Easton.

I decorated by bedroom for the first time in several years, because it needed Christmas Cheers, as it tripled as a bedroom, a virtual meeting room, a back-up radio/podcast studio, and occasionally a bar.

Here are highlights from a socially distant State Auto Christmas Corner, open through New Year’s Day.  The Nativity Scene, outside of State Auto in the Discovery District, kept the 90 year-old Downtown Columbus tradition alive, minus any events associated with it, due to the Columbus/Franklin County Stay at Home Advisory and Social Distancing Protocols.
