HOPE — Visitors traveled back in time to the Christmas of yesteryear in Hope on Friday night.

Traditional favorites such as 6-foot tall Christmas cards, strolling carolers, light and music displays, a live Nativity scene, a visit from St. Nicholas — and Hope’s ‘Ghosts of Christmas Past’ — all returned during the 16th annual “Christmas of Yesteryear.”

The Yellow Trail Museum, as well as the Hope Area Chamber of Commerce, sponsor “Christmas of Yesteryear.”
