Joe has hundreds of mercury vapor and incandescent street lights nicely and neatly on display within a fenced-in corner of his backyard. Generally this area is pretty much accessible but owing to the record snowfall we have had here in the Boston area this winter, Joe decided that his streetlight museum should include snow sculptures (actually that originally was my concept!). Anyway, here is a sample view of some of his vintage mercury vapor and incandescent street lights adorned with myriads of snow in natural form! And with some storm damage (fallen tree limbs) as you can see on the right!
