The Chickasha Festival of Light

After our son graduated last Friday we decided to go see Chickasha’s Festival of Light at a local park. We have been hearing about it for years so this was our chance.

It was fun. Lots of lights and stuff to do. The vibe was mellow. We loved it.

Our favorite lights was this Santa skiiing behind a reindeer driven motorboat.

In downtown Chickasha, not part of the Festival is this crate. It has a 40 foot tall leg lamp like the one in the movie Christmas Story. It is a tethered inflatable balloon and it was grounded Friday night because of high winds. We were disappointed. I found this youtube video that shows it.

We had a good time in Chickasha. Logan has graduated and I doubt we will ever be back. Oh well.

I am linking with Our World Tuesday. Check it out.

    Congratulations to you son – beautiful photos of the light show – I find lights hard to photograph – you’ve got me beat! Hope your holiday season continues to be wonderful.

    The lights over the bridge are pretty spectacular and imaginative creations abound it seems. Wishing you and yours a safe, healthy and blessed Christmas, Alan. I continue to enjoy your contributions to OWT.

    Haha … that infamous leg lamp sure gets around. A Christmas Story is one of my favorite all time seasonal movies. Let me extend my congratulations to your son on graduating. Now life begins anew!

    Such a pretty way to get into the Christmas spirit. We’ve been through some sorta’ like that but they were drive thru only (and this was way before Covid). It was always really fun to look at but we never would have been able to take pictures of ourselves there (no great loss to the world however).
