   They happen here, in our little 100 x 35. Out island might be small, but our spirit is immense, festive, loud and resilient. Now hold on, this is just the beginning! They start before Thanksgiving and end almost in February.

The snow is fake, but for them is real, as real as it will get for most. Christmas and Innocence are a beautiful thing to uphold.
