Letter: Christmas cheer is visible from the air

In regard to a recent column titled "Tastefully tacky," the author and others visiting our display questioned whether anyone could see our lights from space.

I am pleased to report that a visitor last week remarked that she indeed had this experience with our new display at Shelter Cove Towne Centre. She was a Clemson student returning home for the holidays. As her aircraft approached the Hilton Head International Airport, she saw a dazzling display with a festive glow spread out beneath her.

But I personally don't think she could see our dove from there. At least not this year.
