The owner of the house down the street from me took down his St. Patrick's Day decorations this weekend.
I was puzzled by this (St. Patrick's Day isn't for another week) until I noticed this morning that he'd put up bunnies and eggs for Easter, which comes really early this year (the week after St. Patrick's Day, in fact). Guess he didn't want to risk missing out on decorating for Easter.
The Easter tree in the front window has to be seen to be believed.
In other news, there's a real estate office on our main street. It has a row of nice poinsettia plants in its window, presumably placed there originally for Christmas. In an effort to update the display, the realtors have stuck a green glitter shamrock in each pot. It looks kinda nice, but since it continues the red-and-green theme it doesn't really erase the "held over from Christmas" impression.
I'm hoping they don't follow up with Easter bunnies.
