Belsnickle Parade
h
If you ever want to hear what the "Amish" Night Before Christmas is like, there's a version of it available, just like the redneck "Night Before..." The main character is a Santa-like character called the Belsnickle.
Saturday we went to the "Belsnickle Parade" in Halifax. There was snow on the ground, and there weren't many people there to see. Our Girl Scout and her troop all dressed up in very old fashioned dresses and marched, and got a good place in the judging, winning for the troop a nice cash sum of $100.
The first picture is of my son standing under a rather largish tree, near the parade route. Just a cool picture of a boy and a tree, nothing at all to do with Belsnickles! The second picture is of the Girls Marching in their dresses, singing Christmas carols. And the last picture is my daughter, wearing a dress handmade by the assistant scout leader.
