Hi all,
I actually registered a while ago, but usually spend my time lurking, in awe of the talent here.
In introduction, I started putting up my roadside display a few years ago (my house is 200 feet from the road), which is fortunately on a main highway. I am no where near as talented as you all are, but I have fun, and get a lot of people stopping to take photos, including a couple that said they come up here on vacation every year in October to see what I've put up.
I actually made both local papers this past Halloween, and that was great.
I'd love to try my hand at animatronics, but being as I run 200 foot extension cords (with triple taps) down to the road (and cross my fingers every time I plug something in) it doesn't seem feasible to work with an air compressor. I don't have a problem with vandalism, but an air compressor might tempt someone.
