Cerebral Gibberish

I spent this afternoon wiring up my big tree in the front yard with lights for the holidays. Last year I only had a few lights up but after Christmas I bought up a lot of L.E.D. lights at 50+% off so I could use them next year. I would love to do a light display like the video below but I’ll have to work up to that I think. Taking pictures of the lights reminded me that I also need to get a tri-pod which would provide a stable platform for long exposures.

If you don’t know already, light displays like this video are created by using a computer that runs software which talk to power controllers that turn the lights on and off synchronized to music. The music is broadcasted from a radio transmitter in or around the house so people can tune their car radios to that channel to hear the music.

Well the yard is nice and dry after the torrential deluge we had Saturday so decided to mow it after I got home from work.

I guess it is getting to be that time of year again where yard work will be on the to-do list every week. The backyard is looking good and the ivy is growing at full speed across the hill.
