Harold Davis and his family again have pulled out all the stops on Christmas lights in their yard on Chimney Road, just off Highway21 in Rincon. His sons, Harold and Dennis, said the tradition got started back in the 1970s and just gets bigger and bigger every year. They started putting the lights together back in October and turn them on just after Thanksgiving. Dennis Davis said it just makes his father happy each year to see children and families coming out to enjoy the lights.
