Good Morning Wilmington
We’re in that season now. The Halloween stores have commandeered the empty commercial buildings. Some of your neighbors have already put up their gravestones and skeletons. Costco starts pulling out their artificial Christmas trees. It’s all beginning to accelerate. Before you know it we’ll be pulling down the Halloween decorations for the Christmas lights. It’s indeed time to start thinking about those holidays before they creep up on you! 👻 💀

Brookgreen Gardens’ Night of a Thousand Candles
Still, many Wilmingtonians are less aware of Brookgreen Garden’s “Night of a Thousand Candles” which is considered one of the very Best Holiday Light Events in the United States. This display is spectacular in every way and considering that it’s less than two hours from here, you owe it to yourself and your family to make a visit!
Brookgreen Gardens’ is located in Murrel’s Inlet near Myrtle Beach.
