We had a great time this year with a few new additions including the dancing skeleton and the new Magic Wall. We invite you to view the video in the left margin. It was built with common styrofoam on a frame that just drops into the garage door opening. AJ used special software displayed to a computer monitor in the wall. He hooked his X-Box headset up to a guitar amplifier to modify his voice to sound like a 4,000 year old enchanted mirror. He was able to interact with the trick-or-treaters using a tiny pinhole camera mounted in the wall. When he was ready to hand out candy, he'd trigger the fog machine and drop the candy through a hollowed out plastic skull - in a magic cloud, candy appeared. Lots of fun.

We just completed our first holiday display last night with the Halloween 2013 light animation show. We'd like to thank all the ghouls and goblins that stopped by. The glowing comments everyone had for us really touched our hearts. We especially want to say thank-you to you all for being courtous to the neighbors and for the safety steps you took for the children trying to rake in all the candy. It was a great event and we look forward to doing it again next year. Dont forget to stop on by one night after Thanksgiving for our first Christmas show!   

What a show and what great participation.  Because of the bad weather on the 31st, the Avon, IN town council decided to postpone trick-or-treating until Friday night.  That gave us a few extra days to show the display.  We had intended to go live with the show, but due to some technical problems, we only managed to squeak out a few days.  We didnt advertise, but word got around.  What a great time we all had.  This display took nearly a year to plan, build props and create the programming necessary for the show.  The nice thing is that we've learned a few things and next year will likely be a lot faster to set up.  By then, we should have a few new tricks up our sleeve.   Thanks to our neighbor and filmaker Dave, we should have our videos up on-line soon.
