Buda Bits
by SANDRA GRIZZLE
Lights and decorations are going up all around town, which makes it feel like Christmas is coming, and it is just Thanksgiving week. Downtown Main Street will be all aglow starting Friday, Nov. 25 when the Christmas lights come on at dusk. City employees have been very busy getting the lights up on all the buildings in old town.

Have you seen the white water tank on Main Street? It is still white but now the Buda logo has been painted on both sides. Looks nice!
The Buda Library is asking for book donations for the annual book sale that takes place during Budafest. Books should be in good, clean condition and can be dropped off at the library during normal hours before Wed., Nov. 30. As a reminder, the library will be closed on Thursday and Friday of this week and will open at 10 a.m. on Saturday.
