In the interest of entertaining everyone, I skulked out the door to go take a few sneaky shots of the Lowe's Christmas spectacle (all the while freezing my buns off!.
To let you know how big a draw this house is... people are actually driving from other community living areas on this base to come park and look at the Lowe's house. Most people sit in their car and goggle, mouths open.
I think that the Lowe's house can be seen from space, along with the Great Wall of China. I wish there was someone in orbit I could ask about this.
Ok. On to the pictures.
The FIRST picture is my house. Bushes decorated. One large light-up snowflake. Three small matching snowflakes. On at dusk. Off at 11pm. That's it.
The SECOND picture is the Lowe's house. (Note the terrifyingly real Mr. and Mrs. Santa Clause on the stoop. LIFE SIZED. EEK!) I just couldn't get the entire house in my frame, so this is HALF of the front of their house. HALF. Yes, I know that there are more garish displays of Christmasmania around our country... but this is next door to ME!
Their lights are on 24/7. Even with our blinds closed, we can see the glow of their lights seeping through. Like a nuclear blast. You think taxpayer billions are going to pay for Iraq? Nope. You're paying for the Lowe's lighting bills.
ENJOY THE HORROR!

The Lowes have some competition in our area. There is a couple near the Dunbar bridge. They have two carports in the backyard to hold their holiday decorations.
My daughter likes me to drive by at night. She loves all the lights. Still we don't have to live next to the radioactivitiy.
He really does, no kidding.
Tonight on the way home from work, we stopped and took a picture of a particularly bright house. Like, you-can-see-it-from-space bright.
I'll post it on my blog pretty soon. I really think we've got you beat with this one.
