WinCo Nature Communing With Dorothy & Giant Candy Canes
None of my regular morning nature communing on this first Tuesday of the 2026 version of November. Also known as Election Day.
I did my voting last week. And now I await the results.
Most of my walking this morning took place at WinCo. I needed to go there because I needed to grind some fresh peanut butter. The peanut butter you make yourself at WinCo is the best I have ever had. I learned this soon after the first WinCo opened in the DFW zone, years ago.
My route back to my abode, from WinCo, took me by MSU, also known as Midwestern State University.
Every year, since I have been in Wichita Falls, I always seem surprised to see the annual Fantasy of Lights displays begin showing up on the MSU campus, before Halloween.
Today I saw it looked like most of the displays have now arrived. So, I stopped to photo document some of the scene.
Above you see a fallen Santa Claus, near a train and giant candy canes. A Merry Christmas to All sign is between the fallen Santa and that little brown gingerbread house. To the right of Santa, but out of the photo frame is the Jolly Roger Pirate Ship.
There are a few of the Fantasy of Lights displays, in addition to Jolly Roger, which I don't quite get how they fit the Christmas theme. Like the Wizard of Oz display with Dorothy, the Scarecrow, Cowardly Lion and Tin Man on the Yellow Brick Road in front of the Emerald City.
I will try and remember to experience the Fantasy of Lights, this year when it gets nearer to Christmas. The Fantasy of Lights draws a large crowd, at night, on weekends. It is entertaining.
