The holiday season is among us and it's that time of year where we take the family out to see the bright lights, Santa Claus and those lovely branches.
“The Christmas tree is a symbol of love, not money. There’s a kind of glory to them when they’re all lit up that exceeds anything all the money in the world could buy," said the late CBS News "60 Minutes" host Andy Rooney.
Lucky for all of us in Lake County, there are plenty of holiday trees that are erected around the area decked in festive illumination.
