Bonfires on Christmas Eve
In St. James Parish, just upriver from New Orleans, they have a tradition of lighting bonfires along the levee for Papa Nöel. These are large teepees of firewood, and make for a spectacular sight. You can see these at Lutcher and Gramercy.

That's a pretty tradition!
Merry Christmas, Angel!
They do that for Christmas? It looks like a pagan sacrifice. Have a merry one, Ms Pop Tart.
I don't know how those people are standing that close to the fires. Those things are putting a LOT of heat.
That's a very nice custom!
Aw thanks for sharing that, dear! I never knew it and always love to learn something new. A Christmas Miracle! LOL
Merry Christmas, Angel!

What an excellent tradition! I hadn't heard of that particular one and am glad to now know.
Merry Christmas!
I hope your X-mas was as wonderful as mine.
