I am impressed with my energy and ambition from back then and lack of respect for gravity. I put up old school bulbs and &#8220;icicle lights&#8221; on our gutters and the roof peaks. Those are old school bulbs so one could only put string together strands of three or so. I&#8217;m a chemical engineer, not electrical, so the strand limitation made for some strange geometry with extension wires and such. These days with the led&#8217;s, you can put as many strings as you want in series. And now, I don&#8217;t get up on ladders, period. Me and gravity are not friends, never were really. So if I can&#8217;t reach it from the ground I don&#8217;t worry about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m really bad about diverging. Sorry, I like the intricate shadows that the lights along with the tree shadows on this photo.
