The main square Christmas tree was laid out this morning - on its side - so the 4 men could decorate it with lights. Makes sense, really, no falling off ladders, no stepping on strings of lights as you walk around the tree - and although it took them all day, and it was still on its side tonight, it will be glorious once it is placed in the gazebo behind it and surrounded by the nativity scene and all the lighting in the square. Stay tuned.
One of our Quebec locals feeds many street dogs throughout the year - here is how he does it - puts out piles of dogfood on the sidewalk and everyone gets some. He feeds the cats, too, and our 3 bookstore cats looked like Garfield after last summer, but I think he has stopped feeding them so much, as there are 3 businesses who also do, 2 of which are restaurants.
After we closed up the bookstore tonight we went around the corner to the Cantine Bistrot to listen to some awesome blues. Jimmy is the main man in the Men in Blues, who plays at David Lau's all winter, starting in January, but he gets together with Manuel, a local bass player, Kenny, drummer from Quebec, and Diego, an awesome guitarist, to entertain between now and then. Great music!!!
