Window Decorating

   Old American movies often highlight a time when people went "window shopping," especially at Christmas. Big cities, giant department stores, lavish window displays.
  We don't get much of that in the average American city/suburb/county seat all now filled with Targets and Home Depots. So, what a pleasant surprise to amble into ye olde window display on J Street at the Citizen Hotel in downtown Sacramento. It's not just the nostalgic Santa memorabilia. Check out this great naughty and nice list below. How refreshing to see a corporate institution like this - especially in a political town, or maybe because it's a political town - go out on a limb like this with actual opinions on our world today.

 Thank you, festive and savvy Santa!
