Well I don't know about the lights being in the parking lot, but as of a few weeks ago I noticed the lights stacked together and sitting on a back stage road with some old Backlot tour vehicles, on the access road between the main guest parking lot and the cast Parking lot.
That is where they were yesterday.

If by "we", you mean "me", then yes.

Guess I should have said the question was rhetorical.
BTW, I hear there are some new bathrooms that are very photogenic, but alas no new DVCs ... for a while.

I will be christening said bathrooms this Saturday; by drinking enough water, I should be able to use a bottle of white wine.

Hahaha, I almost typed in LoW rather then Lights of Winter, but I caught myself, not sure they would have any idea what was being referenced.

The sad reality is that Disney really doesn't care what FANS think of WDW. They see all the "First Visit" buttons and get enamoured with them. You can complain via email, snail mail, phone and in person but they will do what they wish. They have become too big to hear complaints. That is why it is so difficult to find an email address that provides more than form replies.
Thus my suggestion to remove the fact that Main Street USA was an AP holder from his very well written letter.
It's my believe that in the overall scheme of things that non-fans spend much more money than fans do. Even though we take many trips, we are constantly looking for ways to spend less and less.
I know many people, including myself, who have emailed them and received phone call responses.

Yeah...thats where they store them throughout the year. If the tree is out and they are not...doesn't look promising.
They looked surprisingly small when stored, I was surprised they were just at the side of the road (it looks practically like a dump).

Is there thinking like this going on with Disney management:
"Well, a large portion of our guests in December are first-time visitors so they won't notice that anything is missing."
Surely they can't be using such logic.
Or maybe it's"
"We already have the Christmas tree and the decorations and we have Illuminations so why have Lights of Winter also? It only causes a traffic jam on the bridge and costs a lot to put up, operate, and remove."
Surely they can't be using such logic. (& Don't call me Surely)

Here is the link to the comments section of the blog. The more comments we can get through the mods there the better. Hopefully someone will take notice.

Isn't cancelling the Lights of Winter a breach of contract?
Thousands of guests have already made their reservations for a December trip to WDW based on seeing all the Christmas decorations and lights.
There was no prior warning, given early in the year, that the Lights of Winter will not be there as they have been for many consecutive years.
It's a major, and well advertised, part of the Christmas experience at WDW that people expect.
