Rhode Island may be small, but that doesn’t mean we don’t go big for Christmas. A few families, in particular, take their holiday lights display to the next level. This year, the Picozzi family in Warwick is celebrating their 10th year with a dazzling computerized Christmas lights display. Take a drive by 75 Grist Mill Rd. in Warwick and prepare to be blown away. Don’t forget to tune in to 97.1 FM on your car stereo to see the animated display dance to the music!
