I’d enjoy it myself…..

Some people have big houses. And some people like celebrating Christmas. And then there is Dominic Luberto.

A year ago, Luberto bought one of the largest single-family homes in Boston. It has 11 fireplaces, stone turrets, long red velvet drapes, and furniture imported from Italy. Set on a can’t-miss spot on the Arborway, it is one of the jewels in Frederick Law Olmsted’s Emerald Necklace of roads and parks surrounding Jamaica Pond.

Last month — a full 72 days before Christmas — Luberto began covering the exterior of the 8,500’square-foot house with [tag]Christmas lights[/tag]. He says he has spent $10,000 on lights alone, a purchase that he hopes will cause people “throughout the city, throughout Massachusetts” to take note.
