We’ve just begun our winter walk when a man behind us pulls out a guitar. I hear the simple sounds of “Silent Night” fill the cold night air, and soon everyone around me is singing. Holding a lit candle in my mittened hands, I join in. The light of my single candle joins hundreds of others, illuminating our footsteps as we walk through historic Golden, Colorado.
It’s all part of the Olde Golden Candlelight Walk, a beloved tradition in this little town of 20,000 nestled against the Colorado Rocky Mountains some 25 minutes from Denver.
