Even though I’ve lived through quite a few Christmas seasons here in the Mission, for some reason I’ve never noticed these Christmas lights adorning all the trees lining 24th Street. Do these get put up every year? Who is behind this festive endeavor? With Thanksgiving weekend still in its death throws, they sure didn’t waste any time!
For those of you who want to get a sense of how we celebrate the holidays here at MM, just pour a little whiskey in your champurrado and sit around the fireplace listening to this:
Also . . . ABBA CHRISTMAS.
yes, these are up every year.
any idea who puts ‘em up? is it the city? or some sort of Mission Christmas Committee?
I think the folks at Lower 24th Street Merchants association put them up every year: http://www.lower24thstreet.org/english/index.html
The Lower 24th Street Merchants & Neighbors Association has been putting up the lights for quite a few years now.
once again, i gotta say it: I LOVE BONEY M!
Yes indeed! they are lovely and not tacky. They have been going up along the 24th Street Corridor for years. te amo the mission.
