Christmas ornaments magically come to life in Bonney Miller's book, To Christmas With Love. The tale provided the inspiration for a lighted holiday drive in the Old Town neighborhood in Rockwall. Residents painted wooden figures representing the ornaments, ranging from a star to a donkey, for 11 yard displays that are accompanied by poetry from the book. The tour, which begins near State Highway 66 and Parks Avenue, covers about seven blocks, and some of the historic homes along the route are decked out with additional lights. The neighborhood usually hosts a holiday home tour, but residents opted for a light display this year instead.
– Ann Pinson
• The lights go on nightly around dusk through Dec. 31. From the intersection of State Highway 66 and Parks Avenue, go north on Parks and follow the signs for the tour.
More Christmas Lights!
