Some years ago we belonged to a golf club which was very friendly and everyone knew everyone. A back slapping type of club. There was one man who used to sit up at the bar on his own and rarely spoke. One night he told my husband and me that at 18yrs old he was in the group that drove through the gates of Auschwitz Concentration Camp as part of the liberation of the camp and he had never been able to forget the people that met them. It had been a continual nightmare for him.

I Didn't write down the number but if you look for it you won't miss it. Doesn't really look like a menorah as you might expect (especially at night) but if you drive slowly you'll see it. We drove past it twice. Just look for the bronze military helmets with boots below it. It was on the left side of the street against the house. At night with their house lights off its not easy to realize what it is since it is dark bronze. They use very dim lights. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Interesting observance in SS square last night. 4 plus the shamas were lit and someone knew better and turned one off. After that someone decided all should be on - well that was quite amusing. But now for I question I have. Tradition I believe is to light candles from right to left however a menorah is meant to be a public display and usually placed in a window. Thus the public would view the lit candles from left to right. In the SS square the menorah is against the stage. The candles are being lit right to left but we are the audience facing the stage. Should not the lighting be from left to right in this situation such that we view the lit candles left to right ?

Since LSL and Spanish springs were both wrong I guess they were just misinformed. As far as how they are lit it is right to left. Not sure how it is displayed outdoors matters because it is not in a home in a window.

The important thing to remember is the REASON for Hannukah. It celebrates victory over an oppressive regime which restored Freedom to a people. Freedom to live as they choose and to freely worship G-d. Something this patriotic community we call The Villages also holds dear. May the Lights of Hannukah uplift you and give you peace.
