Fasnacht

 Parades

Before Lent in Europe, there are various festivals as a last party before the solemnities (or what used to be solemnities) of the pre-Easter season. Here it is called Fasnacht. People dress in outlandish costumes, play carefully off-key music, and throw things. Like candy. And colored confetti. 

This is what one finds in one’s driveway and yard along parade routes. 



You will still see it months from now. 

And, on another note, how is this for winterizing?
