Steemusa Photo Challenge & Tree Tuesday {Happy Holidays!}

Hey everyone! As it is a week from Christmas, I thought I would jump on the holiday cheer bandwagon (to make Hive account@dswigle smile🤩 ) and share a few shots of decorations for the current Hive account@steemusa Monday Photo Challenge. I haven't jumped in on any of the weekly USA challenges in a while, so it's about time! This will also count for a fellow member's challenge--the weekly #treetuesday theme for Hive account@old-guy-photos.

What is more American than baseball? These shots are of the decorations around the Atlanta Braves baseball stadium this year. I finally took a stroll down there yesterday evening as I hadn't taken the time to do so yet this season. I work right in the area, so I really had no excuse! It was actually a pretty pleasant night to take a walk and check out all of the festive scenery. I think my favorite decoration was this fun baseball...

All the little kids around were running through the dome and playing in the green space they have set up outside of the stadium. I think pretty soon they'll switch that space over to an outdoor skating rink. Of course there are always the massive ornament displays that seem to pop up all over the place. I think I have seen Hive account@tattoodjay share a few shots of similar ones in NYC.

Of course the festive effect would not be complete without sparkling wreaths spread about, as well.

I might have taken a bit of a loose approach to the challenge since I think it is only supposed to be one photo, but I didn't think my Hive account@steemusa buddies and everyone else would mind some extra cheer. It is the season for giving, right? 😉

I hope you all are finding joy this holiday season! Cheers!
