Christmas Lights in Illinois and Indiana

2FastLX · 12-13-2002, 04:30 AM

When I lived in Farmer City Illinois about 11 years ago there was a house just west of there in a town called Le Roy that had some phenominal number of Christmas lights on display. I heard 2 neighbors helped with the electricity because the bill was so big, and It put off a glow you could see from the highway. Anyone seen this? Do they still put up all of the lights?

My wife is wanting to go see them and maybe go looking for other displays. Anyone know where any really good ones are around central Illinois and Indiana? You know, the kind that make you say "HOLY $#!1"

Hey "2Fast", I am from Lafayette, and the wife and I are going to a farm in Rossville. This guy actually starts setting the lights out around halloween from what I hear. It's the BEST I have ever seen! We go every year. I also hear that the small park in Frankfort has a huge display this year too. We are going to try to hit both of them on Saturday.
