288/365 Bulbs burning bright

With the rising surge in availability of LED and fluorescent bulbs, I'm betting that in just a decade or two, kids will have to look in a history book to see what an incandescent bulb looked like.

That's a funny thought, isn't it? What else will become extinct in the same way?

For the time being, the majority of our Christmas decorations are lit with incandescent bulbs. The bulbs in this photo are our outdoor decorations, which will probably be stashed away this weekend.

But until then, they still burn bright outside the front door.
