I have to say I was a bit ummm disappointed and somewhat startled by the display overall. It was like something out of a sci-fi, horror film about Christmas. While the robot theme was perhaps ok in itself, and the junk-bots have a certain artistic quality to them, I found the skulls adorning some of them, including one of Santa's reindeer to be a bit garish.

True, the effort overall is apparent in terms of the vast amount of light simply in quantity alone. There are robots that have moving parts, smoke, lights and other interesting features. I admire simply the size of some of them, not to mention the sheer number of them. Perhaps in another setting, or another season, I'd have really enjoyed them as art. However, the display may be more appropriate for a Halloween-themed event, rather than Christmas.

This is not to say that we did not overhear many compliments from others as we walked through the property. We did. Yet, I feel that families seeking a traditional type display may be disappointed at the least, and for those with young children, the skulls, bones, cyclop eyes, and other odd features of the display may be frightening, or at the very least, puzzling.

To be clear, my intent is not to disaude anyone from viewing this effort. Rather, I'm attempting to offer a more clear description and impression of what you will see if you go there. Though the description I read above did discuss the many robots, etc, I felt it did not convey more plainly the overall feel of the display.

If you and your family are seeking something unusual, artistic, and different from the norm, you may very well enjoy the efforts of the artist's work. If your intent is to enjoy a traditional, and especially a religiously themed display, this is likely not the trip you want to make. The vibe is not very joyous, nor is it very cheery.

I hope this helps those seeking to decide where to spend some time this holiday season based upon your interests, taste and intent. For us, it was not worth the trip.

Merry Christmas to all.
