Mike Czepak is putting the finishing touches on his Christmas light display -- that he started just before Halloween.
Not a spot on his Maple Ridge, B.C., home isn't twinkling with lights. There are about 40,000 of them.

The front lawn is adorned with everything from lighted penguins to polar bears to toy soldiers. And, of course, there's Santa on the roof.
"My father, he passed away just over a year ago, and we did it together when I was a kid, and so the last couple years here I kind of went a little crazy, kind of in honour of him," he said. "He enjoyed it. I enjoy it."
When you're wiring a display like this, you don't just run an extension cord out into the yard. It's got to be planned out.
"I moved into the house a few years ago and me and my father rewired and put plugs all throughout the yard," he said.
But does the impressive display extend inside the house?
"I don't do anything inside, absolutely nothing," Czepak said.
He said he's got a fancy silk-satin Santa that stands about two or three feet in the middle of the living room.
"And that's it."
