If you hurry, there’s still time to participate in a historic event: A record crowd, perhaps as many as 5,000 people, are attending The Farmers’ Museum Candlelight Evening at this hour.  Last year’s 2,500 set the record, but this year is expected to surpass that by far.  The Christmas tradition began at 3, and long lines quickly formed, with people attracted by a combination of Christmas spirit and warm weather – even now, the weather is 50-ish.
