The 12 Days of Christmas in Lake County
By: Jonathan Jones 12/15/2016
We're down to 10 days till St. Nick visits our homes, so how else to celebrate the countdown but with the 12 days of Christmas in
Lake County.
Let's be honest people, a collection of drummers drumming, pipers piping, lords leaping, ladies dancing, maids milking, swans swimming, geese laying, golden rings, calling birds, french hens, turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree seem a little excessive.
I mean, just think of the mess and racket those persons, places and things would make. It is doubtful however that people would turn down five golden rings - sounds like you just made bank.
However, for the purpose of the holiday season, the hit song and just good ole fashioned fun, let's see what we can get on the 12 days of Christmas in Lake County.
