Hit the Lights

Last we loaded up the Ol' four wheel drive sleigh and took a ride through Lake Shore Parks, "Lights on the Lake" Display. It would appear that the powers that be in Ashtabula actually got something right. There is a $5.00 per car load "donation" and it takes 10-15 minutes to ride through. What I liked most about it were the creation of area landmarks out of lights, such as the lift bridge, light house, and covered bridge(pictured above). My only complaint is they needto pump music through. If you are in town or are going to be I suggest you take the time to go through the display. I believe the money that is collected will go towards adding to it next year.

Since Mattie had it in her head that it was going to take an hour and a half to go through, we spent some time driving around the harbor checking out house displays. Hands down the best goes to the guy on the corner of Ohio and West 13th Street. His house is very nicely lit and he actually has his whole dispaly coreographed to music. So roll down your windows when you come to the stop sign.
