Actutally, I don't even have a working porch light - been out for at least 2 months. Not sure where this house is located, just my favorite in an on-line photo gallery.
I really like white lights over the multi-cored ones. I think this display is beautiful and serene.
That house is all over the internet for the music they have synchronized with the lights. I'll go try and find it if you haven't seen it.

This video is 15 mins long. There's 4 or 5 different songs.
There's a bunch of different houses on youtube, but this one is always my favorite.

That house must sound like a small airport with all them blow up things screaming.

I wonder if the porch was dropping before the Christmas decorations were put up...

I don't even know what I'm going to get people! I think I'm going to be sending out a lot of gift cards this year.

It'll be fine. You could breeze right through everyone on your list from the comfort of your home, do it online, many stores are offering free shipping right now.

I'm trying to find a small t.v. for my mom right now online. It occurred to me that what I'd like to get her is one of those Life Alert things but I think she'd be offended. She lives alone in a big ass two-story home. She's already broken a hip when she was by herself. I'ma talk with my siblings about it.
Back to shopping....

Do you have Rite Aid's where you are? They are having flat screen LED tvs on sale - good price. Make the life alert a stocking stuffer.

This photo (houses in Arizona) and a short piece about it was featured in the SF Gate a couple of days back.

I don't know if the DITTO house is a fail or a triumph, guess it's subjective.
Note: just noticed a bit in the article about someone doing the same last year in Oregon, so "fail" for lack of originality...
