A home on Ponce de Leon in Faubourg St. John.

Christmas night, I took a long stroll around Faubourg St. John taking random photos of lights neighbors had put up for the holiday. What was going to be a thirty minute walk turned into a four hour hike.

While I did get a bunch of photos, they do not fully represent the enormity of enthusiasm Faubourg St. John residents have for the holiday season. Visit the links below to take a holiday tour of just a few of the many homes in Faubourg St. John with the holiday spirit.
