As the sun sets on Central Texas in December, white holiday lights lining the windows of businesses along Highway 183 click on, leading visitors into Goldthwaite. The illumination ultimately guides travelers to the town’s centerpiece, the red brick Mills County Courthouse, which explodes with holiday lights this time of year.
The town’s festive décor, an eight-year tradition, doesn’t just happen overnight.

Shops and restaurants in Goldthwaite — population 1,802 — have donation cans set up to collect money to keep fresh bulbs in the holiday displays.
