Mike Manzara Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Well, I am only 3 days away from lights on as this Saturday is our Santa Claus Parade which for me starts the Christmas season. Things are a little tense here as this is year one with LOR. I have been programming since March and building all the elements for my show. Yetserday I just finished putting up the lights and elements. Today I will start to hook it all up. A dry run on Thursday then the show begins.

Linda McDonald Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 My electrician is coming tomorrow and my first LOR arrives on Friday. The house is almost done and lawn service picked up the last of the leaves today, so we start on the yard tomorrow.As far as programming, I've downloaded lots of files and have preliminary programming complete. The show won't be the greatest this year as we are just learning about LOR, but I'm sure it will beat last year's GE Lights & Sounds of Christmas.We've had our Indian summer this week and the temperature will drop on Saturday, so we hope we'll have almost everything done so that we can start tweaking the shows.

boborino Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I think LED's are taking over the world. I've been looking for 100ct Green mini lights and they are almost impossible to find here! Guess I should have stocked up last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda McDonald Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Ace Hardware has 100 ct. green mini light sets for $2.99. If the local store doesn't have them, you can order on-line and get free shipping to a local store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were disappointed with their selection when we went to their new store last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
