Last night we had a great invitation from friends Barb and Barry to go see the Christmas light displays in the Port St. Lucie area. Barb had the whole route planned and Barry mapped it out on his smart phone. Come to find out that there was a free bus that did the tour, but it sold out in something like 15 minutes, so the company organizing it put the addresses online. This worked for the four of us as Barry drove and Dave navigated with Barry's phone telling him where to head next. Meanwhile Barb and I in the back seat got to relax and watch it all. The best display was set to music, like you see on TV specials or on videos, and the owner had the sound coming through a radio station. It was fantastic to see something like this in person, but unfortunately I couldn't get any good photos because the whole scene was constantly in motion. Here are a few others though(notice the car in the first one)...
To top off the evening, we headed over to the Jensen Beach area of Hutchinson Island for the gigantic annual display at the Mansion. This 260 ft. long home has 12 garages underneath it, 5 of which house Rolls Royces. The only year the owners (a couple who are in the software business) have not put up this magnitude of lights was 2017 when Hurricane Irma caused lots of property damage.
What a fun way to spend "Christmas Eve's Eve". Thanks Barry and Barb!
