The season has started. Beacon’s Highway Department (and maybe some of the Water Department if needed?) has hung the wreaths and stars on Beacon’s Main Street. As for some Beacon trivia, according to Beacon’s one time Highway Superintendent, Reuben Simmons who now drives the street sweeper: “There are electrical outlets in each of the lamposts that were part of the LED project when we switched out all of the lights.” That is helpful for more flexibility for the holiday stars to plug into, and help during the Spirit of Beacon Day for table vendors to plug into outlets if needed.

It’s go time for your list and holiday that will go very fast, yet take a lot of time. “Yay! Love this time of year, and seeing all the wreaths and pretty shop windows on Main Street,” said Stephanie Jones, owner of The Blushery on the far east end of Main Street. Get your brows, makeup, and laser hair removal done there.

Remember to slow down in some moments to enjoy them, and know that others of them too shall pass into the next good one again. Here we go!
