After many hours of driving Chris, Suzi and the girls finally arrived in Trotwood around 3:00 AM December 24. We had a relatively quiet Christmas Eve, but, decided to go to St Clair State Park--about 40 minute drive--to visit a light display that is put up each year at the park which is located in Eaton, Ohio. We have been in Ohio nearly 15 years and this is the first year that we have gone to visit the display. After the visit, I doubt that it will be the last. The pictures do not do the display justice. I think the snow on the ground confused my automatic light adjustment/focus and they did not come out as good as I had hoped. The pictures that I did take is less than 10% of the light display in the park. You can drive through the whole park without getting out of your car. However, there is a parking area so we did get out to take pictures and visit some of the buildings. There is no fee for entry and they also provide free hot chocolate and cookies. They do accept donations so I left a donation.
We plan on going to Clifton Mills to see the old mill lighting display. It is voted the best Christmas light display in Ohio and the display is absolutely beautiful. We have been there before, but it has been over 5 years. Hopefully, we will get some good pictures to post.
