Signs of Christmas, 2006

   What a night! The worst windstorm in recent history hit on the Thursday before Signs of Christmas. Thousands of trees were down in King, Snohomish and Pierce counties. By Saturday, over 400,000 people still didn't have power.
   Over 100 people came to Signs of Christmas. Here is some of what happened.
