NORWICH – For the last five years, Richard Lindner and his family have been decking out their home with lights and music of all kinds. Over the years, some things have changed, but the Christmas spirit Lindner works to inspire has stayed the same.

With 38,000 lights, the show takes 11 minutes to run from beginning to end, and Lindner says the show runs repeatedly from 5 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. The lights are programmed to music. Drivers can tune their radios to 95.9 FM, a station that is broadcast from the Lindners’ basement.

Lindner said he was first inspired to put on the show due to time he spent in Philadelphia when he was younger. Lindner said although the type of show he now puts on was impossible to attempt in the city, he always enjoyed visiting one section of the city, which contained 40 row houses on each side of the street that were decked out with light.
