One of our local news stations is coming up on Sunday to do a story on our display. We had another station come up three years ago to do a story and the turn out that year was three times what it normally is. With our display being up for a few weeks now we have had alot of people already stop to see it. Going to be a good year.

Congrats! When the news showed up at ours last year they came unannounced, right at dinner time and I was totally unprepared for it.I'm not a good public speaker at all and trying to do it on the spot with a camera shoved in my face was...interesting.

That is exactly what they did to us 3 years ago from the other station. Right when we were eating. Trying to make sure we didn't have anything in our teeth as we were on camera lol.

Thank you so much. Actually the spider is coming down next year. My Grandson told me I should do giant ants. He is 8 years old. So next year I am going with ants climbing up the garage and a large ant hill on top of the garage. Hopefully it will turn out great.

That doesn't mean the spider will be gone. I plan to put it on the ground in the back yard with the web coming down out of the tree.

Giant Ants? I immediately thought of this.
