After the Party

Following a fundraiser that featured polo matches, all that is left of the party at one of our local parks are white chairs and tables, waiting to be picked up. Gone are the ladies with their de riqueur garden hats, and the men in -- well, whatever it is that men wear to polo matches.

I walked by these party remnants today and thought they added a nice architecutral air to the otherwise rolling green hills at the park. I am guessing that as soon as these items are stored away that the county workers will begin installing the huge light displays for the annual light show at the park. Millions of lights will glow into the night from November to January to the delight of carloads of people. The holdiays seem like a long way away on this beautiful fall day.
