[Ready to go in Ok]

nope. we sleep in then get out and hit the yard heavy getting thee christmas lights on and working, ussually we are about half way through by then, this year i havent started yet,, the leaves arent all off the trees and its a pain to get to them after i start stretching wires for the lights...


may not put out more than 10,000 or so bulbs this year, but then again, i may go all out again and do several thousssand more than that,,,lol,, one year we had a 30 ft tall light treee in the front yard,, this year i'm not sure what we will do, really haavent planned htem out at all, so i'll juststart hanging lights and see where i stop. i'm thinking the inflatable santa and sleigh is going on the roof though....and since you can now see our back yard from the highway, gotta do that side of the house too. yeah i have an osborne kinda thinggoing,,lol,, altho i have yet to purchase any extra property just to light it...

Ooh, wow! You have to post pics when you get it done!

OK this may sound silly but do all of you that get snow always have a white Christmas? This coming from someone who can't even imagine playing, shoveling, throwing snow.

It depends on the season. One year we had over a foot of snow and another year it was in the 50's

I guess like here some years it's chilly. On the other hand some years it's in the high 80's and not very Christmas like at all. All the kids that get new bikes and outside toys probably love it though.

I think I'm a good distance from you, I'm on Long Island.
Just to get out of the Island and through the city takes over an hour and half!

PA gets more snow than us.
