Every year, the neighbors on the corner put up the ugliest nativity scene ever!
You can practically see the fleas leaping off the mannequins, and they’re always at least one or two wise men short. Joseph is often missing for days on end. (Well, what with the baby crying all the time and their marriage is a bit strained since he isn’t the father – who could blame him?)
I think this year, they got a new lamb and may have re-upholstered the donkey. Either way, my main complaint isn’t the display, it’s the fact that this is on the corner of a major thoroughfare and when you’re coming off our street (heading left in this picture) you cannot see the oncoming traffic because of that damn manger.
(They did move it back from the street some this year, which does help.)
