We won our town's Christmas Lights contest

Recommended Posts

Buzz

We moved into our house Dec.31, 1969 and that is the only year we didn't decorate for Christmas. Over the years we've added a few things. Our town has had a lighting contest for quite a few years and we finally entered it this year and won first prize. We received a nice certificate and a nicer check for $500. That will almost pay for the electric bill this month..................

Looks great Buzz! Last year while out on a little road trip one night with my son (we were looking at a vehicle) we crossed the state line into New York. We came upon this house that was a Christmas light extravaganza! Who ever did this must have spent a month on it. Thanks for posting as it reminded me that I want to take my younger son and the wife to see it, if I can find it again!

 If only I got an employees discount!!! As it is, a chunk of my pay goes toward the electric bill this month. FYI, Carol is the decorator. She tells me where to put each item and wire it and my only input is "Yes Maam".

We have a 20 'x 60' chicken coop that we store them in thus wasting valuable space that would be better utilized as Wheel Horse storage. Of course that is only my opinion and does not reflect the opinion of management.  :hide:
