It's a Blaze! - part 2
PHOTOS BY JAMIE NYGAARD
Note: Here's the second of a two-part photo series on this year's Blaze of Lights. Click here for photos in the first installment.
Bluffton's favorite cold-weather event was pretty mild (weather-wise). Yes, this year's Blaze of Lights went off with a hitch.
A 90-unit parade, entertainment followed the parade, Fairy Parkins turned on the lights, Santa Claus met youngsters of all ages, everyone had a chance for a horse and wagon ride down Bluffton's Main Street, the Gift of Giving light show entertained people, just like an old drive in movie.
Jamie Nygaard was on the scene and offers this photo selection of the event.
