We got to Deerfield in Plano last night for lights. I'd say around 550

of the 730 homes there were lit. Took us nearly three hours to drive

through. They were beautiful. Especially unique was one house with over

100,000 lights computer controlled by 850 channels of lighting

automation and animation, set to music broadcast over FM radio. It was

incredible watching a little reindeer go scooting across the lawn to a

musical run or watching the Christmas trees do that to other music.

We do intend to get to Interlochen in Arlington one night still and to

the Prairie Lights Display in Grand Prairie and, hopefully, to Highland

Park. For Interlochen we'll drive to Arlington, eat dinner, and plan to

be there at 6:00 pm. It will probably take close to three hours,

depending on the waiting time to enter.

So one nice night of lights done and at least one more, probably two

more, maybe three more.
