Ahhh. The holidays. Time to trim the tree, sip on some egg nog, and sing holiday carols. Your house is a blank canvas, ready to be all decked out with Christmas lights, Griswold style. Or maybe not quite that over the top. This year, more than ever, it seems that the holiday lights are a source of cheer.
What’s more fun than decorating your house with lights for the holidays? Driving around and seeing what everyone else did. Here at Helgeson Platzke, we’ve come up with a list of light shows in the western suburbs that are worth the drive and sure to lift your spirits. And while this list shows eight high points, your drive will probably include some surprises along the way.
So, map your route, grab some hot cocoa, hop in your car and enjoy the ride! Socially distant – no mask required.
