Drive by that tree every morning on the way to work... while its dark of course.
Its striking. I heard there is another one like it in Flo Mo in the middle of a field someplace?
Someone mentioned it on the beloved Next Door app but did not say exactly where. Anyone know?

That's a lot of work. I used to do the trunk and a few feet of the larger branches on some of the trees in my yard...would take 900 lights...that one takes a lot more, I'm thinking.

Yea so the one on Gerault in Flo Mo (blue one pictured) takes a three-man crew almost three full days to complete. At least that's what I can observe when they start putting it up the first week of December. They use at least two very tall scissor jack type platform deals to get all those lights up there.
