Christmas lights?

How many folks decorate up the home place or head out to view Christmas lights others put up?

We used to go out to Joe's place on the west side of town and to the Chruch off of Meridian south of 235.

Where do you go? Where's the best place to go?

The wife likes to decorate up the house around here. It's kinda tradition to go out christmas eve and look at all the lights. I can't remember where they have it but every year they decorate one of the parks as a charity for mentaly hadicapped kids. It's a really great setup and it's for a good cause so we go every year.

We don't put up a lot of lights, but usually do a couple of drives around the area to look at other folks' lights etc.

Just got all the Christmas stuff out of the attic and brought the tree in. Tomorrow I'll be putting up lights.

New house this year - which means new christmas lights to put up - which I did on that last warm 60+ degree day we had a week or so ago. I would guess that since I am a complete christmas light freak, I will add on each year to the outside display so that I eventually light up the entire neighborhood. Unfortunately, this year the lights I have up are limited, but I have started to swap out my old lights for the LED's - the difference is amazing!

Got a tree up, but no lights yet. We went to Abeline and toured the parade of homes, and the Museum, and went to a show there. It was fun actually. Beloit Has a Parade of lights in the park... it is a drive by thing with lights and moving stuff. People come from all over to see it. I used to work handing out brocures... its all for a good cause.
