We had a ‘street party’ in our village yesterday. Vince put coloured lights around the barbecue area and others brought along lights and table decorations.
Vince took the top photo and you can see lots of people enjoying each other’s company. I took the lower photo. I didn’t realise it was so blurry and only took the one but I’ll put it up so you can see how the lights looked once it grew dark.
This morning, Vince and his good friend who lives some doors up put up lights for our friend’s neighbour. He and his wife are quite a bit older than us and he shouldn’t really be climbing ladders. So that was their good deed for the day.

There were quite a few people there. Looks like fun. I'm glad Vince was able to help a neighbor put up their lights.

Everyone brought something to share. It was all laid out on the tables and you could help yourself. Some passed around the plates too. Although it was supposed to be a barbecue, some thought it was finger food so there was a bit of both.

@oahuwriter We had taken meat to barbecue so I tried not to eat too much beforehand.

Did the trash/recycling bins enjoy the party, too?

That's one of the great things about being in communities like yours. The access to gated areas makes it so much safer to gather.
