Should Christmas Lights Be On All Night or Turned Off Before Bed?
Why are more and more people leaving their Christmas lights on all night long?
For over 20 years I ve been putting Christmas lights up on my house, turning them on in the afternoon and shutting them off before I go to bed. For the longest time, that s also been what everyone else in my neighborhood has done. But recently things have begun to change. So what s the deal?
As someone who gets up at 4am and travels to work in the dark, I ve noticed that more and more homes in my neighborhood are leaving their Christmas lights on all night long. This year, it seems that almost every home is lit up. Was there some meeting I wasn t invited to where Hudson Valley homeowners got together and voted to keep their lights on all night?
