Well, here’s the new light set up I have for the back yard this year. I got 4-50′ LED strands at Home Depot on Black Friday for like $6 each. The spruce trees are so big, both girth and height, that I could really use double the lights on each tree. Maybe next year, or maybe I’ll do something else. I like how the little sized lights look, but when I originally thought of putting lights on these trees I thought of using C-7 or C-9 sized LED lights. But to make that practical I might have to go to a commercial supplier, that would be like 200 feet on each tree. Oh well, more for me to obsess over…

‘Tis the Season…
I was almost ostracized from the neighborhood for not getting my lights up til last weekend. Well, that’s probably a slight exaggeration, but our neighborhood is probably the most decorated for the holidays I’ve ever lived in. Same basic setup I’ve done since we moved in, but I’ve added 2 more strings of lights each year to the bushes in the front left of the house. Kinda crazy there are now 9 strings at ground level and 4 along the gutter. Once I touch up the photos of my new lights in the back of the house, I’ll probably post them as well. Oh, and please be nice to the friendly folks bringing you all of your Amazon riches.
