Gift of Lights at NH motor Speedway
Took my grandchildren ( 4 and 5 yrs old) to this on Saturday night. Pretty impressive, or at least the kids thought so. I wouldn't want to get their December electric bill!

We went Saturday night and was not that impressed, was thinking there was going to be a lot more lights. At least the money is going to charity. I spoke with a lady running the cash register and she said it is doing better than they expected.She mentioned 900 cars went through last Saturday.

Took the kids/grandkids
They are young enough to love the show.
Me? I'm an old NH native and I thrive on originality. Everything was canned, so I think it was tacky............................
