This weekend was the Denton Holiday Lighting Festival and Wassail Weekend. While rain put a damper on some of the outside celebrations on Friday evening, we still saw tons of people enjoying the closed off streets and various festivities. That wassail high will really keep ya going. Photo by @peopleofdenton.
