Ready To Go!
13 days ahead of schedule, Wilton Lights is up and ready to go. You may see us outside testing some animations or tweaking things, but everything that needs to go up, is up. See ya Dec 6th!
Major Milestone…
As of 11:50 PM Saturday night, the 21 foot mega tree is up and running. 96 strings of mini lights, 4 strings of strobe lights, and another 2 strings of mini lights on the star (9,821 lights in total) are all working great. Still need to tighten things up before a good wind comes through, but otherwise it’s good to go. Just 2 more minor (but important) projects to complete and we’ll be ready for showtime.
No Myrrh, Thanks. Wrong Star…
We’ve just installed the 6 foot tall Bethlehem Star on the roof. It’s insanely bright and illuminates most of the yard. If you’re driving by we’ll have a simple animation running on it until it’s time to turn everything else on (Dec 6th).
Christmas 2009 Preparations
We’re well on our way to have the display ready. in the next couple weeks. Here are some pics of what we’ve been working on.
The star topper on what will be our 21 foot tall tree of lights, though it doesn’t look like it from directly below. We actually have this turned on most nights if you happen to be driving by…
The “mini trees” are out and ready to go.
The 6′ star which will go on the roof just got a completed frame. All it needs now is some paint and wind-free day to get it up there.
