Yes, there is a lot of depression around here in California - gas prices, high taxes and more so I do anything I can to cheer up the area. I get a ton of compliments on my seasonal yard decor, lights, blow-ups, etc. - each and every day someone tells me how much the decor cheers them up and how much they appreciate it - little kids, elderly, people who barely speak English, dog walkers and more.
A mother four blocks over told me her kids demand that she drive past my house every day to see my Snoopy flags and if I’ve put up anything new - another neighbor told me he makes his wife walk past my house every night so they can see my “fairly lights” and the pink string lights I have up around my fence.
I wish more people would put up yard decor - and, I’m glad to bring joy wherever I can.
Ah I knew it. You’ve got a real ministry.
