A place to check out some of the Christmas lights in Crosby Township Ohio! This year we had 30,451 lights glowing in Crosby Township.
Crosby Township is a quiet little community nestled in a little corner of Southwestern Ohio. Many of the residents here enjoy decorating their homes for the Christmas season for all to see.
I will always remember my days as a kid in the late 50's/early 60's, when we would go for a ride to check out the lights. The Rack brothers on North Bend Road in Monfort Heights were always the best. They lived down the road from each other and it always looked as though they were competing with each other. Of course there were many others, but I always wanted to compete with those guys. They seemed to set the bar, and they always set it high.
Now it's our turn! My wife and I want to pass it on. Since we have been doing this for the last thirty years it has always been a joy to see the cars slowing down to get a look. For some reason, no matter what the weather is like, It seems you always have to put the car windows down to get a better look. That is when you can hear the squeals of delight from the young and old alike. That is when you know you did a good thing. That is when you relive your childhood.
At our previous home we were lucky to get 7,000 to 8,000 lights up due to space restrictions. When we moved to a bigger location in 2004 the first thing I did was install four dedicated 20 amp outlets on the outside of the house. This gave us the capability to install 20,000 lights. This was in addition to the existing outside electric outlets. We also have another meter attached to one of the barns which can accommodate another 20,000 lights. Maybe some day I will put it all to use.
We enjoy putting them up as much as others enjoy seeing them. We will
continue to do so as long as
we possibly can. Here are some of the photos from our previous displays
