Upon digging the display out after this weekend’s storm we’ve found that one of the 2 ropes which holds the light harness at the top of the “mega tree” has failed. The ropes we used are rated for double the weight, and we used 2 of them, but it let go anyway. Right now, the assembly at the top of the tree is hanging rather precariously at a wierd angle held up by a single rope and we’re not sure how long it’s going to stay there. We thought about it and decided that trying to fix it would do more harm than good, at this point, so we’ve opted to just let it go as long as it will last, and we’ll deal with it after the 6th.

So in summary – If you want to see the full display, do it quick. We’re not sure how much longer that part of it will be around.

Wilton Lights! is now on Facebook. Our website referral statistics tell us Facebook is where everyone is talking about the display, so we figured we might as well give the display some presence there. If the display is down for whatever reason, we’ll be sure to make note of it there so folks don’t waste a trip down.

And just to keep things interesting, we’ve posted a few “behind the scenes” pictures to Facebook which aren’t available on this website!

You can “become a fan” today!

Merry Christmas!
