Last week because we hung around the cottage past dark before heading back to the farm, we noticed the solar lights in our neighbors yard and how beautiful they looked. So… a few days ago I walked into a nearby discount store and found all their outdoor solar light selections half price – perfect! These are the cheap variety, I’m sure you can spend more money on really good ones, but I’m proud to tell you I got these beauties for $2.50 each, on sale from $5. Since they’re made of mostly plastic I don’t have high hopes for their endurance, but for now to see if we like the effect it’s not a bad way to figure that out.
I stuck them in the ground immediately and with two days “charge” time, last night I made dinner for the guy and I down at the shore, cleaned up the dinner stuff… and waited patiently for the “show” to arrive.
It took a while… and briefly I suspected they really were just cheap crap and weren’t going to work.
Frasier wasn’t impressed either.
But just as I was packing up to head home, I saw this….
Which quickly became this…
And in those moments of admiring my half price solar finds… I was reminded of a few quotes that are particularly relevant in these uncertain times…
Till soon, friends..
