Holiday lights still shining bright

Holiday lights are still shining bright in our borough. Many homeowners keep their houses illuminated past New Year's Day until &#8220Little Christmas,” one of the traditional names in Ireland and Italy for January 6, more commonly known as the Epiphany or La Befana. It is called this because it was, until the adoption of the Gregorian calendar, the day on which Christmas Day was celebrated. It is the traditional end of the Christmas season and the last day of the Christmas holidays.
