I would like to take a moment to appreciate the people who live at SE 32rd and Taylor. I don’t know them, but they take holiday decorations to an astounding level. This is the corner (now home to Mars Hill church) that hangs different festive lights over the street for each season (my favorites are the Sunnyside sunflowers in summer). Their Halloween decorations—an elaborate spooky scene assembled in their garage—inevitably turns every passerby into a Peeping Tom. Their Christmas decorations set the bar for creativity. Fuck you, inflatable snowman. They have a nativity scene involving a television playing the Spanish channel 24-hours-a-day and another styling Bart Simpson as baby Jesus.
