Where did you get the train?
Walter made it! He looked for a kit to no avail. SO... it was to the shop for approximately one year to figure-it-out. He was determined to make it run. It was all trial and error.
How did you get "up there".
Walter gets "up there" by using an extension ladder. It gets scary sometimes. No... we don't use a bucket truck.
Are those real toys?
You bet! They are all toys of the past. Guess it's a reminder of our childhood days. We are always searching for old toys we like. We must prep the toys for lights and then its the actual installation of lights. Quite a bit of work is
involved before we have the finished product.
Are those dead trees?
The so called dead trees are tallows that have been pruned and stripped of all leaves for the installation of rope lights.
No, they are not dead.
Where did you get the light show?
We made it up! We choreographed the show by computer. All lights are synced to music by the use of LOR.
