Another Year for Lights on the Lake

Lights on the Lake opened Monday night. I saw this fact on the news while getting ready for work in the morning. My how time goes by. So I left a bit early and rushed down the two blocks from the library parking garage, a bit before 8 a.m. Yes, the lights were on already.…

Would those be lights at the lake?

No big feature displays leaning against the trees or ground yet, but I did spot strands up in a small tree at Onondaga Lake Park. It is only five months from the start of Lights on the Lake 2021. Or five months since the conclusion of Lights on the Lake 2020.

Gone but not forgotten

The preparation at Onondaga Lake Park is more serious. I can picture the walkers going through the arches all bright with holiday colors the opening two nights first, though.

Out come the lights

We know they’re getting ready for the Thanksgiving holiday at Onondaga Lake Park. Paired with the nice September weather, my work colleagues and I have seen the signs of preparation for Lights on the Lake. Already.
