The Holiday Season

Holidays...they're everywhere! This time of year has plenty of traditions and beliefs for everyone to get in the spirit of spreading joy, love and the light of human kindness. Lights are sparkling on houses, some too gaudy, some too classy, and some just right.

I love light displays and always have. I love the community parks and churches that do the BIG stuff and I love tiny porches glowing with wreaths or candles in the windows. Oodles of color, or all white, I love it all!

When I lived in Indiana, the John Deere dealership did a huge, drive through animated display. In Nebraska there was a farm outside of town that pulled out all the stops. In our current neighborhood there's the gamut from six-foot nutcrackers at one place to so many icicle lights on another home I'm sure you can see it from the space station. But never have I seen anything like this video:



There's something about the trees that just makes me giggle!

While I'd be baffled in trying to go this far out, I love that someone else put in all the time, energy, creativity and then shared it with the rest of us.

Have you got a favorite light display or color scheme? Leave a comment so we can all share!
