A few days ago, my son’s friend asked us if we ever go Christmas Light Hunting. Huh? What is that? Apparently it’s just driving around looking for beautiful Christmas light displays. Well, yes….we do that EVERY.SINGLE.Christmas Eve! So, I guess we’ll have to start calling it what it is…Christmas Light Hunting!
BUT…here’s another GREAT idea that I just read about today! Hunt for houses that are displaying a Nativity…and when you find one, drop a ‘Thank you for displaying the Reason for the Season’ card in their mailbox paperbox! LOVE that idea! Since we’re out hunting anyway, we’re going to add that to our tradition! Some people are soooooo smart!
Have a great day! Do or Learn something NEW!
Not to put a damper on your good thought, but it is illegal to access mail boxes for non-postal uses. You might get someone who does not appreciate? The fine is not inconsequential. I think it is $250. minimum. That’s why newspapers, if delivered, install those square tubes on the posts, they can’t legally access the boxes.

tape it to the post that holds the mailbox? I think that is OK, probably legal, at least not a federal offense

Never too late to start a new tradition.l We always used to take the kids out to look at lights on Christmas Eve … they were too keyed up to sleep anyway. A friend of mine said their family does an “ooh aah” light tour…when they see something pretty on the left, that side of the car says “oooh” and when they see something on the right, it’s “aaah”……
