The Christmas spirit has been alive and well around Mariposa these past few weeks. In the top two photos, Christmas music was in the air at Pony Expresso last week. Joanie Noble, left, and her niece, Rebekah Noble, played the cello at the coffee shop along with her daughter, Elie Noble, who accompanied them on her violin for some of the songs. “We did it last year for the first time,” Joanie said. “We love to play. We forgot how cool it is to walk into a coffee shop and hear live music.” In the bottom photo, Mariposa Museum and History Center Director Amanda Adams, left, is shown with museum education coordinator Rosalie Thurston with entries in the gingerbread portion of the museum’s Christmas Tree Lane event. Christmas Tree Lane will be open through Jan. 31 at the museum. The gingerbread entries are a new category this year.
