As previously mentioned, Richmond takes Christmas lights really seriously. One of my favorite houses is Christmas on Wendhurst. The owners are really nice, and the display is always really well done.
This year, someone took a drone out and filmed the Wendhurst house. The results are as cool as you’d expect:
See if you can spot what the neighbors do to their house in the video. It’s quite funny. If you can’t, here is a shot from a year ago.
Additionally, some of the facts and FAQ answers on the Christmas on Wendhurst site are really astounding. A few highlights:
- Over 170,000 lights
- Set up starts in early September; teardown ends in February
- Their electric bill is an additional $1,000
