Bah Humbug

The front yard at 3310 Stratford Ave. looked like a fairyland last week; it was beautiful.  The homeowner's son had surprised his mom with a couple of projectors that shone light on the trees making them sparkle with a rainbow of colors.  It only lasted two days before the Grinch stole the projectors.  Now, every time the neighbors walk out front, we are reminded that there are those who don't respect others or their property and Christmas isn't quite as merry as it was.
