OK...you win. That's the gayest tree I think I've ever seen.

I MIGHT get some light strings up tomorrow...MAYBE...if it doesn't rain too much or get too cold.
(the fucking Canuckistanian Freeze Invasion is supposed to start sometime tomorrow and last all week)
 
That's pretty cool! 😀 Reminds me of my California days while living in Riverside where whole neighborhoods would decorate.

What kind of camera do you have? Mine doesn't do low light very well.
 
Haha nice. Just need to shovel snow over those cords now. 😉 Electrical safety? That's what GFCIs are for. :awe:


California is actually unique in that they have snow in the mountains, beaches, deserts, and woodlands. It really is a beautiful state, but sadly things are going south there with the politics and illegals. Not to mention the crime.

Oh right did not notice location. Just seems hard to imagine a Christmas without snow I just take it for granted.
 
When I was growing up I used to live in North Dakota about 50 miles south of the Canadian border. Snow and cold was all I knew along with the northern lights. 😀 Back then my town had like 50 people. Now maybe there's 30. LOL!
 
I really should get to building the giant sun wheel. I also have to find a decent hill to roll it down, damn fire department won't let me express my religion in in the city 🙁 first the Christians steal my people's traditions and then they won't even let me do them right, hang a Christmas wreath my ass. They also won't let me burn the yule log in my apartment because apparently that's a fire hazard. If I can't burn shit how the hell am I supposed to make sure the sun returns and ask the gods for good fortune in the coming year :colbert:

I used my camera on my phone, didn't even use the flash, its the HTC EVO 4G.
 
Nope, had some extra outlets installed, using LED's makes it pretty straight forward. Its all on timers, in the old days it took a little more finesse to make sure I didn't trip the breakers.

When I build a new house in the next two years I'm going to make sure to get extra plugs installed for this purpose :hmm:
 
wasn't going to put up anything but stumbled in target over the weekend after having several beers and walked out with a few things. so far no one else in the complex has put anything up.

not much but here's my awesome x-mas light show:
