That wasn't the case at all. The reason why the lights stop being put up was because George was getting older and me and my father were the only other people who knew exactly how George would like to set up each scene. With Me moving out of state and my father getting older as well there was Noone left around to put up the lights.
I remember when they used to give out ice cream. I just looked this up and found this video after telling someone the story of our Pasadena Christmases
Used to drive by the Pink Mansion atleast a couple times as a teenager. Back in the 70's. It has changed owners at least once since then. Last i heard some some new neighbors decided the extra traffic this Altadena landmark would draw at the holidays was a terrible nuisance and they must stop!!!! Why buy a house next to a local attraction that has been around for literally generations if you cant bear sightseers on you street? Did they ever succeed?
Exquisite! Such wonderful memories. Thank you for sharing♥️
