Title: Christmas Lights
Post by: Fuzzy on November 29, 2008, 09:31:21 AM
Well today is about as good as it gets around here for Nov. 29. It's gonna be close to 40 degrees with no wind and next weekend is out. The girls love the lights so here's the plan:

Three blue spruce trees (12'-16') in front of the house.

One ladder.

Electricity.

I should probably have a couple of beers first to add to the degree of difficulty but I think I'll pass.

Golf.  I'm out of here at noon.

The weather's looking good, so our lights are going up today.  I'd prefer to wait a couple of weeks, but I lose this argument with the wife every year.

Nothing on trees, just along the front of the house.  Multicolor, old-school fat bulbs.

Put these on two of the trees and clear on the other one.

I put clear on the house every couple of years. Looks nice.

We don't do external lights. Way too much work, IMHO. We'll probably put the tree up today.
