Gettin' The GM's Digits!

So, about 3 weeks ago the Maine decided she had had enough. She couldn't stand the GM's Digits! (the 30 year-old address numbers that were drilled into a pine tree in our front lawn.) So she went online to find some new ones... (unbeknownst to me!)

"Something cool and trendy!" she says...

"Uh huh"

Then, they finally arrived last week... Guess who had to figure out how to put them up....

Bill and Matt, our contractors??? Ha ha ... Very funny...

Me...

After a weeks worth of nagging, and pestering, and whining, I set out this weekend to put the new numbers up. This entailed using the circular saw, painting, and drilling... all under the watchful eye of the Maine! (talk about stressors!!!)

So then, this PM, the contraption is finally complete. All that was left was the ceremonial placement.

The whole BY family trudged out to the front yard.

Daddy worked feverishly at removing the 30 yearold marker.

The Maine and the Pizz played.

and then we were done!

Wha- la!

But that is not the best or secret part!

What was "cool and trendy" about these numbers is that they have little solar panels, which charge little LED lights...
