I have to say that I think the same as Bluer, Damo and schumigirl on the holiday decorations
I enjoy Christmas holiday for the reason we celebrate it
The meaning of it is probably different for me than others I guess
When decorations go up early, it becomes more of scenery for me than the reason
I have always stayed away from the motherland in November due to the decorations being everywhere there
Just not my thing
When I lived in Chicago area, decorations , holiday cards, ribbons/ cards/ wrapping paper would go on sale end of September
Weird seeing Christmas items on sale near the Halloween items in mid October
Now I live in the South, will find out when the merch will start here
I'm good with the park holding off on the Christmas decorations until early December
But there is no right or wrong for this topic as we all have different thoughts on it
Exchange of opinions is interesting
