In our little town of Willamina, Oregon, we have a Lighted Christmas Parade every year. Last year, there were about 6 entries with one of them being a "Cinderella" type coach complete with princess. We were there watching it and of course, we were lit up with a portable power supply and a few hundred LED lights. I had thought we could enter it and maybe win a prize that we could donate back to the cause in the form of food for the food-bank. The first plan was to decorate our car (a Ford Taurus) with a white lacy shroud and Santa with reindeer or something to that effect. But now, a smaller and redefined plan has been devised.
And here it is..... The Mobile Light Suit!
Six channels of LEDs with a total of 1000 lights in a rainbow of colors.It will be really cold so the Camo suit will keep me warm. Complete with Christmas music, it plays 20 tunes really loud. Total weight of the suit is around 30 pounds. Total cost of the suit was around 30 dollars due to buying it all secondhand. Sometimes your hobby carries you away instead of the other way around.
Our dog, Penny is a 3/4 Dachshund 1/4 Pomeranian and such a sweet and obviously, a tolerant patient soul because she put up with the fitting and a bit of training but we knew she would do anything to get a "One" (that's her word for a treat of any kind.) She will be walking alongside of me in the parade in her cute Santa Skirt that my wife made for her. Its stocked with 35 LED lights and will use a dark green extension cord for a leash. She knows something's up but not sure what it is. Maybe it will get her another "One"
