New Jersey truly is a magical place when it comes to the holidays. Not only are festive activities happening all over the state, it's also been plenty cold.

Sure, some of us wish is wasn't this cold during December. But in a way, it's kind of perfect when it comes to the enjoying those holiday events.

And if there's just a little bit of snow on the ground, it's even better. When you think about it, Christmas decorations and cold weather kind of go hand in hand.

Speaking of which, think about how special it is to drive around and check out all the Christmas displays? Especially around the neighborhoods to see all the houses lit up.

And it's just as magical outside the neighborhood, too. Especially with those drive-thru holiday displays, which have been rising in popularity over the past several years.

One such drive-thru is taking place in a popular portion of Ocean County. And it's made possible by the Township of Ocean and the Waretown Volunteer Fire Co.
