Uploaded by: Railheel — Saturday December 1, 2012 — Forest City, NC (Current Weather Conditions)

The moving horse drawn carriage in the low light gave the illusion of a ride from the past. Traffic was heavy with cars and folks out on a Saturday night to see the Christmas lights in town of Forest City.

About Railheel
Railheel My name is Gary and I'm a retired railroader. I have always enjoyed photography and now that I have the time I take lots of photos. My wife of 40 years and I travel from our home in Western North Carolina to her home in Ridgecrest Calif. one or more times a year. Our love is going to National Parks as we travel this great land of ours. We have been blessed by seeing over 30 Parks showing Gods Wonders. WeatherUnderground allows me to visit across this country and around the world from my recliner.
