Jenny's brilliant, but probably normal persons assumption, don't wait to October to try to make a light show for the holidays. Order the parts months ahead and learn the XLights software and how to make the lights do what you want. This can all be done inside with a few connectors hooked up. Once you have your light show semi-ready, start hooking the displays outside and test the running sequences. My desire is to encourage women to find their way to be engineers.
