Peekaboo Menorah. Sounds like a skiing JAP doesn't it?
But it isn't. It is the wonderful compromise negotiated by Team Menorah during the Light Up Dunwoody Xmas Tree belly bucking. These hard negotiators are the kind that use Trump's The Art of the Deal to prop up a table with a broken leg.
But they did get their Menorah.
There are a couple of problems with this layout. If you happen to be southbound stuck waiting for the jerk to turn left out of Dunkin and you find yourself right beside this display you can pretty much see nothing. Because you're looking at the side of a flat Menorah.
Then there is the obvious issue when headed northbound.
You'd never know the Menorah is there because by the time you're past the tree you're looking at the side of the Menorah. And you'll have to be quick to see it in your rear view. In the blink of an eye you'll be looking at something completely different.
It does not get any better if you're walking since getting closer just makes the sign look bigger.
And yet the tree looks fine from nearly every angle because it is really more of a big cone than a tree. You know, like the styrofoam cone your great granny pinned gum drops on to make a kiddy Xmas Tree. Except bigger. And with lights.
Clearly the Tree People won having reduced the Menorah to landscape lighting for the Xmas Tree. Seriously, if you wanted to hide the Menorah any better you'd have to put it inside the tree.
Cannot wait until next year.
