Lights on Horseshoe

Happy Thanksgiving Day to all.  We are truly thankful for all the friends and family in our lives today, and in the past.  We are now moving ahead of schedule with the lights setup since the weather has been so nice (and some much needed time off of work).  We will still be having our first official night next Saturday night the 3rd, but keep an eye out over this way for maybe a sneak peak or showing before hand.

We did some testing again late last night, and the show is looking brighter and brighter.  We should have all the lawn stuff 100% done by Saturday, with just some loose ends on the wiring to do.  Look for a static display to be lit during next week

Things are moving along fast.  There is actually “light” at the end of the tunnel in this year journey to the lights.  We are about 80% of the way set up, with nearly 75% connected and tested.  With this week weather outlook, we should be rock solid by Saturday. Dec 3rd.  Be sure to look for lots of new features we have added, including an Arch over the driveway with musical instruments synchronized to the music.  We also were able to budget an lift to be able to wrap our larger trees in the front yard for the first time all the way to the top.  Each tree alone is pulling over 10-12 amps for each color.

Please bare with us, a newer website format is on the works, check back often in the next few weeks to see updates to hopefully include live webcam shots of the lights and updates to our Charity this year, Tierra L. Dobry Foundation.

Things are moving along.  Great day Saturday with the Fund Raising event for Routes of Hope (this years donation drive for lights). Nearly 20,000 dollars raised so far.   House is exactly 1/4 of the way decorated.  Just a few more thousand lights left to go on it, than on to wrapping 10,000 in the trees.  Puts the light count on property as of today at just under 10,000.  Weather seems to be going to hold nice for another week, so another big push will be happening this week.
