Build cities, right in your own backyard!

Every December, Santa Clara First Baptist constructs a small chunk of Bethlehem right in the parking lot, complete with buildings, market booths, live animals (including a camel), and lots and lots of sand. That's our pageant area for the upcoming weekend; we run the entire thing five times a night for four nights, and let everyone explore the town in between performances as they please. Being home the entire month for the first time since I started college, I actually got involved this time, as one of the shepherds. (Unfortunately, they didn't need any more centurions. Also no more people with speaking lines. *shrug*)

Dress rehersal was today, and of course it rained. Oh well, better today than tomorrow.

Oh yeah... and the inside joke for this year: Donna Hampton is playing the innkeeper. *silence* ...Ergo, "The Hampton Inn." *crickets chirp* Oh, forget it.

If you're curious, the official site is up here. Standing invite to anyone who actually happens to be in the area over the next four days.
