fisherman7 Posted November 29, 2014 Report Posted November 29, 2014 (edited) I don't know why my neighbours keep moving? PS - I've heard all the Griswald comments by the way. Edited November 29, 2014 by fisherman7
Shloim Posted November 29, 2014 Report Posted November 29, 2014 Nice it looks like my old neighbourhood. But we don't stay put long, Merry Christmas !
Fisherman Posted November 29, 2014 Report Posted November 29, 2014 That's not bad, I have a nitwit with a 40 foot long driveway but parks 2 cars on the lawn and the other 2 on the road. Unfortunately he has 3 kids if they added their IQ together wouln't need 2 hand full of fingers to arrive at the total number.
Terry Posted November 29, 2014 Report Posted November 29, 2014 I have run neighbours out of town for less lol no it's fine it's 10,000 flashing lights and music that drives me crazy

Most we get is a few cars who stop in front of the house for a bit.
DanD Posted December 1, 2014 Report Posted December 1, 2014 I keep telling my wife that we should decorate the neighbor's house across the street from us. That way we can sit in our front room and see our work; plus it would be the neighbor's hydro running all the lights. Dan.
Mike Pike Posted December 1, 2014 Report Posted December 1, 2014 In my old neighbourhood, the fella across the street from us had an incredible light show and display. Lights flashing on and off, inflatable Santa and snowmen, etc. People would drive by and stop for photos on an annual basis. Personally, I loved it, and I don't understand why these extreem Christmas decorations are a soar spot for some.
Old Ironmaker Posted December 1, 2014 Report Posted December 1, 2014 There is a kid from Caledonia, Mike Montgomery ( this is public knowledge, recent article in newspaper in fact) that had his parents home covered with thousands of lights complete with music that was available to you through the FM in your car. He started doing this as a teen in High School. It did cause some traffic problems in the residential neighborhood though. From that Mike and his pal lit up the Old Mill in Caledonia on the Grand River. It has become a tourist attraction for the town and bring in people from as far away as New York. This will be the last year as it only is funded by donations from those that drive by and give what money they can and the fate of the Mill is uncertain. You have to check it out in person, it is amazing, best I've ever seen. It is something to see. It is on YouTube, sorry PC problems here can't cut and paste. Check it out. I love your place, as a kid it was my favorite thing to see at Christmas, lights on homes. I know kids love it. Has anyone been to south Florida during Christmas? They go nuts decorating and lighting their homes, including a foot of fake snow at one place I've seen.
lew Posted December 1, 2014 Report Posted December 1, 2014 The place looks great fisherman, always good to see folks getting right into the Christmas spirit like you do. I got all the outdoor lights up over the last 2 days but if my Mrs. sees this post she may be adding to my work list
Mister G Posted December 3, 2014 Report Posted December 3, 2014 Down the road a bit was really lit up with all kinds of red flashing lights........thought someone really went haywire decorating the house this year. Turned out to be a meth lab bust and the police supplied all the nice flashing lights this time around.
lookinforwalleye Posted December 3, 2014 Report Posted December 3, 2014 Ya what`s Christmas with out lites...blow up toys and a big American Express bill.... Bah Humbug!!!
Ice Fishing Ham Posted December 3, 2014 Report Posted December 3, 2014 Looks great F7, you got the spirit. It's a good thing the neighbours keep moving. When they start buying BB guns is when you have to worry !!
