The holiday greeting cards began appearing in stores a few months ago. Neighbors have decorated their homes with bright lights and lawn ornaments.

It's that time of year, when people spread cheer by lighting up neighborhoods with bright reds, blues, yellows, greens and more on a string.

Want to share your electric joy to the world? Have a holiday lights story to tell that even Clark Griswold of "Christmas Vacation" would appreciate? Is there a community you know that goes all out for the holidays?
