Blinded By The Light

December 19, 2009

In Cary, North Carolina there is a house so brightly lit for Christmas, that is just screams, “Santa!  Stop Here!!”  Dennis Cole has been working since April to set up his 17,000 lights, 3,000 feet of wire, elaborate spreadsheets, and computer programs.  The result is a synchronized sound and light display that draws crowds every night.  He even has a FM transmitter so visitors can hear the music in their cars when they tune to 104.9.  While he spent over $3,000 on materials, he figures to only spend about $200 on electricity because the lights blink and are not constantly on.


Santa can’t miss this house while in his sleigh
With seventeen thousand lights on display
To music they’re synchronized
Onlookers are tantalized
Proving the commercial Christmas cliché
