I had a request from someone who wanted a list of the coordinates for all the homes so that they could load their GPS. If you’re interested in seeing the raw data you can view it here: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=tp3B-tse4t20LtrskYrtl_w&single=true&gid=0&output=html in HTML or here: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=tp3B-tse4t20LtrskYrtl_w&single=true&gid=0&output=csv in CSV format (Excel, etc)

Has anyone been to the Fox family farm down 160th towards Hastings? It is more a holiday display done in memory of their son. It is worth the drive.

We drive past it every year on the way home from Grandma’s house in Cottage Grove. It is beautifully done, I’ve heard mentions of it being in memory of their son but don’t know the whole story.

The 153rd Street Rosemount listing is excellent and the best computer-run house that I have seen. I also recommend Walnut Drive in Burnsville – that is a crazy street. I will have to check out the other locations on this map. Thanks Bill!

Just as a sidenote, the 13452 Flagstaff Ave house is really impressive in person. It is one of those houses where you tune to a radio station in your car and the lights blink on and off to the music, so it was hard to get a picture where all the lights are lit up at the same time.
