Stop by the Community Center at the Pocomoke Fire House and see the charming Christmas windows created for the season. These are created with lots of nostalgic charm, artistry and creative thought, sure to delight viewers of any age. I was impressed with the interesting antiques, including an original sign from the soda fountain of the old F.W. Woolworth's store of years ago!

| Remember the days when shoppers would descend on downtown Pocomoke to socialize and shop to make the little one's wishes come true? Did you get a soda at the "dime store" or Clarke's Pharmacy? Do you have a story to share with our readers about those wonderful days when downtown was bustling on a weekend evening? Make sure you see the collection of nostalgic toys in this window depicting Christmas past! |

| "The children were nestled all snug in their beds while visions of sugarplums danced in their heads!" From the favorite Christmas story, "A Night Before Christmas", written by Clement Moore, this window shows a quiet Santa filling the stockings in front of a fireplace. Did someone read the story over and over and over again when you were young? Can you recite it from memory today? |

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, are you? Winter wonderland! Icicles and snowmen , lights and a train, give this window some sparkle and evoke those memories of going "Over the river and through the woods to grandmother's house" for the holidays. In our case, we took the kids and dog over the Bay Bridge-- but you get the idea!
Put the kids in the mom mobile and stop by the fire house to see these windows! They tell me that a "right jolly old elf" is arriving by helicopter today at 4 pm! Come and see! Get your picture taken with Santa! Give him your wish list! |
