This photo is from the first night, where only 1 candle plus the "shamash" was lit.
Here it is from tonight, the 5th night
Tonight, the candles are lit after Havdalah, marking the end of shabbos.

Thanks Robert, interesting menorah, but shouldn't it have 4 candles lighted by now?
I understand Hanukkah started on Dec. 20th of the secular calendar this year.
It would be interesting to see how this time of year is celebrated around the world, considering we get visitors from 227 countries.

This actually isn't from this year but the tree looks the same. As a rule I usually decorate the same.
And a few more...

Here's ours... for the past three years we've gone to a little Christmas tree farm at the edge of town and cut our own tree. Our decorating theme is best described as "eclectic," if "eclectic" means "everything from ornaments made by my kids in preschool to ornaments handed down from grandparents, not to mention a starbucks coffee cup ornament and piano ornament."
If you look closely you'll see that one of the strings of light has gone dead already, but I wasn't about to take everything off and replace it!

Okay, Rod, you gotta let us know what was in that large triangular shaped box... a dulcimer?

I loved it, Norbert!
That is the closest to any boogie-woogie/blues I've heard you play, and I was impressed!!
Happy Holidays!
