idea to remember for later

"the pumpkin rose festival." you hang lights in your windows at xmas
that look like oranges.

i dreamt about this last night -- complete with dream t.v. special about
it. the closing shot was this long pulling track shot of a snow laden
mountain valley at night filled with modern wood homes. all the houses
had orange lights in windows -- some had large oranges on their porches
like jack-o-lanterns.

it was breathtakingly beautiful.

and all i could think in the dream was how contrived the shot was
because some family would have to put up a few regular xmas lights in
addition to the oranges.
