Lee and Karen Duquette at a Christmas drive-through display
at Charlotte Speedway
5555 Concord Parkway S.
Concord, NC 28027
December 20, 2023

Below: Headlights should be turned off during this drive-through display. But naturally, not everyone turned their car lights off. The radi0 101.3 FM probably played music, but Lee Duquette's car did not have a working radio in the car.

Below: Unfortunately, a lot of the photos that Karen Duquette took from the moving car turned out a bit blurry. But some came out decently. There were a lot of cars behind the two RV Gypsies, so Lee Duquette could not come to a complete stop most of the time even though there was room for those cars to pass if they wanted to. These first few photos were taken while in the long line to pay, so a complete stop here did not happen unless all the other cars were stopped.

Below: Karen Duquette saw the sign shown below and photographed it. But, neither Karen nor Lee realized that it was the entrance to the village and they bypassed it in order to see the rest of the lights. Later, they realized there was NO way to get back to it. They had expected the shopping area to be the last thing.

Below: The trees that change colors constantly.

As Lee Duquette drove along the race track, this tree became viewable from each side. First it was only one quick view and then a bit later, there were multiple views of the same tree as Lee drove around the corner on the racetrack.
