01DEC24 - Hard for me to believe it's December already..

Anyway, while the camera couldn't get them all in one frame, what you see here are twenty solar-powered driveway lights that I picked up on Kamazonski. Until now, I've been using these cheaper, plastic reflectors that look exactly like those you see glued to roadways BUT, they're extremely light and even a good gust can move them around.

Worse, because they're so light, if I accidentally get too close to one with the mower deck, bye bye reflector.

These new chingassos have a heavy metal frame and appear to be quality manufacturing. They even have holes in the base and include concrete screws for mounting. I don't want to drill holes in my precious driveway so I plan to try a dab of Liquid Nails and see how that works.

But I love them already mainly because they're blue just like the standard FAA color for taxiway lighting. (smile) Therefive, I will be ordering more to cover the rest of the main driveway and I'll be pitching those old reflectors into the trash.

Hopefully they won't get stolen before I can get out there and glue them down. :=) That'd be just my luck, too.
