So far so good… well, except for one thing. As of this morning I learned one thing… lights and electricity do not mix. Last night a front blew through town bringing with it some rain. All night long I feared that the display was going to be ruined but I instead I woke up to lights not turning on and all the GFCI outlets being tripped.
After a little investigation I found that one of the extension cords that feeds the primary controller was laying in standing water. So, I changed out the cord and made some adjustments with how the cables lay on the ground and all is well.
Here is a image of the house with some of the lights on:
Some of the lights turned on.
Here is link to my Flickr Photo Stream about the construction of my lights.
