One doesn’t have to look too far to find the holiday spirit in the Crescenta Valley. While many homeowners go all out in decorating, there are a few favorites that shouldn’t be missed.

The Fisher home at 4422 New York Ave. features a huge inflatable Santa Claus. Many may remember the enthusiastic display that was erected for Halloween.

The Richards home at 3500 Santa Carlotta Ave. is a community favorite. Thousands of lights are synchronized to holiday music, guaranteed to win over even the worst Scrooge.

The 3000 block of Paraiso Way off Ramsdell Avenue includes several homes that have decked their halls – and lawns, rooftops and any other available space. Several neighbors have coordinated their decorations for the last several years creating a wonderland for all to enjoy.
