Some people took advantage of the cool clear weather after Thanksgiving to get their Christmas lights up. Chuck and Chris Hendryx in the Fauntleroy neighborhood put up "around 3000 lights this year," though he said, "We're kinda holding it down this year.

There are still several boxes in the garage." Hendryx continued, "We decided to get it done ahead of time this year so we can enjoy it."

When we checked on Concord Street in Fauntlee Hills, known as a neighborhood with likely the most impressive holiday light displays in West Seattle, Pete Caune (inventor of the famous Santa Bush) assured us that the street would soon be glowing in spectacular fashion again this year.
