Santa Rosa Christmas Lights Displays on Walnut Ct.

The houses on Walnut Ct., located just west of Doyle Park off Sonoma Ave., ( map) , boast one of the jolliest Christmas displays in Santa Rosa. Almost all of the houses get into the spirit. And a couple of them really go all out with handmade decorations with mechanized parts, bubble blowers, music, the works. The road can get pretty packed, especially right before Christmas. Plus, it's a dead end street. So, chances are, you're not going to be able to just drive by quickly and glance out the window. But, that's just as well because it's worth it to go out and get a close-up view. Here are some photos from December 2006.
