My controllers are in and about 5% of my extension cords.

Stopped the show on Jan 7th.  Wife invited some friends over to see it next week.

Children sports, funeral, etc have eaten up my weekends since then.  Hopefully everything will be down in the next 2 weeks.

Can't blame the weather in Arizona:)

Brought in the controllers and extension cords this weekend.  Still have the lights on the house and both mega trees still up.  The two warm days we have had were raining.  Hopefully get the rest down soon.  Just not gonna do it in the cold or rain.

We've enjoyed such warm weather I have all my light down and stored for the season. I've never been this early.

We had a nice day on saturday and I was able to put up the stuff that was in the garage. Icicle lights and their controllers are still up, but that's all that's left.

Maybe tomorrow if it isn't raining...

Still 60% up!! This was a little ice yesterday morning. Kinda looked pretty nice, I wished all the controllers and wiring were still down and I would have  fired it up!

Mine is now stuck.  The blizzard has hidden it all.  Also, my mini-megas are trashed :(

I lucked out because a warm front came through Ohio recently.  Temps hung around the 50's or so the snow and ice melted.  There was a lot! 

I was fighting off the flu during the really warm days but I finally got all of my display down yesterday.  Last night it was back to snow and freezing rain temps in the 20's...   Whew!  Just made it.

I got it all down but where the heck am I going to put all this?! ;D

I want to thank you folks for reminding me why I moved from Illinois (Chicago area) to Georgia (Atlanta area).  I do remember those day of my static light display being buried in the snow for weeks, but not pleasantly.  surprisingly we did get a lot of snow down here this year compared to a normal year where it snows and melts the next day.  I actually was able to take pics of my display lit up in the snow.  First time I can remember that ever happening to me in Georgia.

We had a fresh snowfall of 5 more inches yesterday.  My roof still has a foot of snow on it, and my lawn - 3 feet.  My display will come down some time around July at this rate.

You might as well leave it up. Just think of all the time you'll save. LOL

ditto - while the lights do look great with some snow - somehow I'm not entirely missing Illinois out here in San Jose...  ;)
