Awesome!!! Are you going to keep the map updated when we get new ones?

I just found another one off of McAdoo - I forget the street it's on, but it's got a really cool display, onlyy red and white lights, with a Rudolph in the perch of the house, it's very well done. My favorite house so far!

I'll keep the image up-to-date if people want to keep posting addresses.

If you can narrow down the location, John, I'll add this one as well.

Has anyone with big displays been having a problem with vandelism? During the past 2 nights(coincidentily since our house was listed in the newspaper) we have had about $300+ of damage done to our home. We have had 2 large plywood cutouts deystroyed, lights dragged in the middle of the street, other plywood pieces of our display placed in the middle of the street, lights stolen... etc etc. We have installed security cameras the first night, but it did not cover the new area of vandelism. Anyone have ideas how to stop this... I have already spent $200 on security cameras and motion detectors, and plan to spend more. But are there any more "non-scrooge" ways to prevent this?

Set up a shotgun with the motion detectors?

Seriously, though, you should report that to the police. Being a "scrooge" is probably the only way to stop these idiots from doing it again.

Well I installed a few cameras and have it monitored. To date we have no damage yet!!! They are simple and can get them at Fry's for about $500 complete...
Merry Christmas and Good Luck

Mike, greetings from up the hill! Stephanie and I really enjoy your display everytime we drive by. I have always wanted to go all out, but luckily Steph keeps me reeled in -- otherwise we'd spend the mortgage on lights Until then, I'll just stick with the "crazy lights" and add a little bit each year.

One of our light sets was taken down, but we assumed it was the teens visiting next door. After hubby went over, they corrected it, sort of.
