Those who have been in the village since last New Year's Eve will likely not be entirely surprised by the appearance of a door: Cherry red, shimmering, and seemingly standing in space in the wooded area between the South Village inn and the police station. To look at it, it leads nowhere, but to push it open from either side reveals the impossible beyond.

Instead of a party this time, the door reveals a jubilant outdoor carnival. Lights and bright swaths of bunting are strung across the area with its rows of booths and entertainment, and the scent of food drifts on the sweet spring air. Anything you can imagine is at your fingertips and free, from cream-topped coffees to candy apples to neon-colored cocktails: Just step up to a cart and find it waiting.

Try your hand at a game of skill, ride the Ferris wheel, slide down the helter skelter — But do it soon, for this dream will not last, and disappears with the next rising sun.
