11-23-11 With an inch of rain, the yard was pretty mushy, so I didn't start until about 12:30 to let things dry off a little. Made up 2 new wing harnesses for the snowmen and the strobes for the sleigh and Santa. Got all of the mini trees up along the house sidewalk

11-25-11Got the Merry Christmas sign up and wired in. Started working on my angels. I wanted to give them a flying effect, so I made up a 4 foot pipe and then made brackets up to mount on the angels that would hook onto the pipe and let them hang in the air. I hung the pipe from the porch ceiling.
11-26-11 Finished up the angels. Decided I better go around and check all of my electrical loads with everything on. Had to switch a couple of cords around to stay under 14 amps per circuit. Ran thru a couple of sequences to check everything out. Ran about an hour on static on to test all circuits. All looks good and ready to go for tonight
