It’s a bit of a seasonal mystery, one that has attracted the attention of the Texas Department of Transportation, which maintains the right-of-way along the highway. (O.K., we admit we stirred things up when we called them.) Turns out this Austin display is, well, unlawful.

Once, I heard that the trees, had begun to appear, I made the detour off my normal route down 183, to see the trees. While I was there taking these pictures, one of the local news teams arrived, wanting to interview me about my thoughts on the trees. I mentioned how it was unique to Austin and that it was a great sign of Christmas Spirit and giving, but all that was cut out for the partial sentence that they used in the story.
Hope you enjoy the picture(s) and video (below).
Have a very Merry Christmas!
Video from KVUE-TV (ABC Austin News), who interviewed me as I was taking these pictures Dec. 2, 2010.
