all kinds of light shows.

I drove around with my wife and daughter tonight looking at the lights in our area, everyone else has the static lights, or steady blinking on the strings.

I'm probably going to be the first in the area to have coordinated lights, but I want to say that i appreciate all the lights in the area, even the small ones.  for me, it's not how much flash you have, but the spirit of the season that gets to me.
Bravo! everyone!

Chris,

I found out that someone who lives about three blocks from me has a pretty big blinky display which made me very very happy to find.  Looks like he might be all LOR, but I haven't been able to find out who this is yet.  He lives on a major road in our area so gets lots of traffic.  Unfortunately for me, I live on a dead-end street in a townhome area (where no one expects me to do blinky! LOL)  I have found his first name, but haven't been able to meet him yet.  The obsession spreads.

My small rural street added 2 more houses with lights this year.

I had one neighbor say, "Well I can't compete with you!"

I looked right him and said, I don't expect you too.  I appreciate the fact that you are putting up some lights for the season and showing your Christmas Spirit.

I also explained to him that I had a mental illness

He seemed to appreciate me saying that and I enjoy all size/type displays that go up.

It is not about the biggest, the best, the most blinky......

It is about showing appreciation and spirit for the season!

Merry Christmas!

Mike.

As soon as I started putting mine out my neighbor asked me if I was feeling ok..lol. now he understands.  Now (this year) all but one neighbor has lights out. We usually have about 8o  stops a day. Not bad for this being one of the first in our area.  I think L Boucher lives about 20 miles away.
