Most will agree that “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” is one of the best Christmas movies of all time. We also all remember the RV scene with Cousin Eddie. Well, that scene has come to life in Colorado.

Roche Constructors, Inc. in Greeley has put up the display based on the movie the last few years, complete with a decked out station wagon and the famous RV.

Along with the RV and station wagon, there are replica mannequins of some of the movie’s characters and a bunch of Christmas lights.

The display can be seen throughout the holiday season at the Roche Constructors headquarters at 361 71st Avenue in Greeley, at the corner of 4th Street and 71st Avenue.
