The Wizards of Winter
THURSDAY. It's that time of year again...
| Happy December! | |
Apologies to those of you reading this over a dialup connection. It would be worth getting cable just to see this video.
This 25,000 light Christmas display, synchronized to "Wizards of Winter," by Trans-Siberian Orchestra, is the work of Carson Williams, an elecrical engineer from Mason, Ohio. This extravaganza cost $10,000 and took two months to complete. Mr. Williams didn't want to disturb the neighbors with the noise, so he broadcast the music over a low-power FM radio station. After serious traffic problems and an auto accident on December 6, 2004, the neighbors made him shut down his display. It's captured on the internet, however, for all posterity.
Enjoy, and be grateful he's not your neighbor.

Last week, I read that he moved the display to a park in the community. He also was able to enlarge his work via outside funding. He said he didn't have time to do much at home this year.
