Every year Claremont has a Holiday Promenade in the Village. Santa comes to City Hall, the big tree in front of the Train Depot is lit, carolers roam the streets, merchants are open, people wander. Have I ever been before this year? No. I don't know why.This year I was invited to play with the Village Pipers, a recorder group associated with the Claremont Community School of Music. We played on front porch of Sonja Stump Photography, and we were grateful it was warmer than last week. Sonja and her husband, Bob, had cookies and cider inside for those who came by to listen.
After we finished playing, we wandered through the bustling streets and even saw the mini "ice" skating rink for kids on Indian Hill and 2nd St. It was some sort of thick plastic on the ground, and you could rent skates and use the rink for $5 for 20 minutes.

Last night in the Village on both sides of Indian Hill it was great to see so many people out enjoying themselves. It was fun to see you all having a "cool" one. :-) Loved the recorder pics. How nice that you all played. I hope they'll do more evenings like that.
