Local businesses, city light up the holidays
Driver Shelley Karlson, her son Aiden (blue shirt) and nephew Ryder Olson get their photos taken at the “photo opportunity” preceding their drive through the Magical Mesa light show. Shelley said, “It was beautiful we had a really good time.” They drove here from Albuquerque on Wednesday evening to enjoy the spectacle at the Rio Rancho Events Center. Gary Herron photo.
If Clark Griswold of “Christmas Vacation” movie fame lived in the City of Vision and had his way, this is what he’d create: “A Magical Mesa Xmas.”
It’s at the Rio Rancho Events Center, and it’s a drive-thru holiday light spectacular, going on through Jan. 17.
