9/30/08 Mystery Lights at the Gazebo on a Tuesday Night

This morning on my way to work, I noticed a woman wrapping Christmas lights around the trees at the town gazebo and another woman standing outside the gazebo, holding a camera, watching and chatting with the woman wrapping the Christmas lights. It seemed an odd scene and I couldn't imagine who they were or why they were there.

Tonight, on my way home from work, I saw these purple lights on the trees and the gazebo. I had to assume it was the lights being put on this morning. The mystery seems even greater now: who were they and why the lights?

I ventured across the street to get this closeup photo and could hear voices coming from inside the gazebo. Apparently, a couple was sitting on the floor of the gazebo having a conversation. I quickly took my photo and left. I didn't want to disturb them. I don't know if the woman in the couple was the same woman as this morning. The mystery only deepens.
