My parents and I drove about an hour west one night a few weeks back after reading in the local newspaper about Christmas in Wadena. A man decks his house out to the nines with Christmas lights and they all flash and dance in an hour long show, timed with music. It’s free to see, with a donation box and a place to give items for the food shelf if you want. There was a salute to the troops, and many, many Christmas songs. Even some jokes about bypassing ‘going green’ to enjoy a little Christmas cheer.
It was an awesome show, and a fun memory – sitting in the car with my parents, parked along the street. We had to roll the windows down to de-fog, and periodically turn on the car for warmth. The music projected into our car through a radio station, dedicated to this light show.
And once it was all over with, my parents and I did what normal people do when it’s 10* out in the middle of winter.
We went to Dairy Queen.
Oh cool! I love that bokeh lighted one.. sweet!
Sounds like a goo time.
My grand daughter asked on Christmas day to go to the Dairy Queen. haha
So fun! We have someone here in town that does this also…radio station and everything. I don’t think it is quite as long as the one you saw. I think it’s so neat!
