Toy Soldiers

Ever since I decided that this daily photos project would extend indefinitely, past the month of February when it started, I've been looking forward to the seemingly infinite possibilities that will come with the holidays. But while we wait for that, I thought it might be fun to indulge a little from time to time, as the winter months get closer, in Disney's holidays of the past. And nothing says "Disney's holidays of the past" like the dream lights. I'll be honest. I don't think they're coming back. They might prove me wrong, and I hope they do—after all, they're bringing back our grey castle. But everything about castle projections is cheaper and less disruptive than the lights and I just don't see them turning around at this point and giving us this view again. So I cherish pictures like this, even if they were taken 5+ years and several cameras ago. I can tell exactly where I was standing, feel that rare cool December breeze, and hear the clomp clomp clomp of the toy soldiers' feet
