On
Thursday evening, hundreds of vehicles came to the parking lot at
the Lincoln Community High School to participate in the Logan County
Tourism Bureau Christmas Cruise. For the children in those vehicles,
the big reward came at the end of the cruise when they were allowed
an opportunity to see Santa and Mrs. Clause. Even Santa is careful
nowadays. He and Mrs. Clause wore transparent masks so that they
were less "strange" to the kids but still safe and able to get a
little closer than would have been permitted otherwise.
There were fifteen entries on the cruise. Those were the displays
that stayed stationary for the somewhat backward parade.
Lincoln Daily News will have additional coverage of the event in its
Saturday edition.

Today
the Winter Wonderland tour of downtown Lincoln wraps up with the
lovely trees that line the Pulaski Street side of the Logan County
Courthouse lawn. While they are all wonderful, we want to draw your
attention to the covid tree decorated by the children of Christian
Child Care in Lincoln. The children made the little covid balls that
decorate the tree, and two quirky little poems are flanking the
tree. The poems drive home some fundamental lessons for protecting
ourselves against the virus. As some would say, "TOO CUTE!"
