All Is Bright

SPARKLE IN THE PARK, BEAR LAKE

At first, you might think it’s a mirage when you round the bend on US 31 into the village of Bear Lake. It’s thousands of lights reflecting onto the lake. Drive through Hopkins Park November 30 to January 1, with windows down to hear the music (the lights flash with the beat!). Free opening-night festivities include chili, hot chocolate, a Santa visit, and carolers. FACEBOOK.COM/SPARKLEINTHEPARK
