Eternitynhevn Posted December 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 He said it was by the railroad tracks. That you have to go all the way around. I asked if it was because a train had hit a car and he said he didn't think so.I have no other ideas.. Link to post Share on other sites

ignoreme Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 You know, I could be wrong. It might be the tree lighting, not the tree lighting. Link to post Share on other sites
Eternitynhevn Posted December 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 So what you are really saying is that they have set fire to several trees in the downtown Hiram area that it has caused quite a stir and brought out several residents of the area to observe the chaos of the moment?

Yes, I wondered that. Ugh. Explains all the traffic on Bill Carruth. They did this for the Homecoming parade, too. Link to post Share on other sites
ignoreme Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 If I had to guess (and it is purely a guess), it is intentionally done during a high traffic time in hopes of drawing more people into the event. Link to post Share on other sites

MaineGal Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 The latest scuttlebut is that Santa will be giving rides on the new spaceage technology supersonic high speed propulsion system in the tunnels beginning at the new tunnel entrance, just follow the lights. I'm not ready to "follow the light" just yet. Really though, to follow the lights, would that be before or after they light the tree?? Link to post Share on other sites
