I was astonished to see what looked like Christmas lights winking at me in the darkness on their 100 acre, 100 year old homestead at the top of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It is something I'll never forget... wish we had them here... my cousin said she hasn't looked at them the same since seeing my delight!
