Well, I did get the Speakers mounted.........

I did do some research before they landed here. And it made sense too me.

Keeping the trim "tight" was a lot of fun, but I'm Happy.

Some clean-up, and warmer weather so I can glue some of the vinyl, then finish the wiring.

I'm taking this as a Head Start for Spring. :pray:
Have a Great Day,

:rolling: As a former [Easter] Bunny owner, I can attest to the fact that they do produce an over-abundance of brown jelly beans! :angry: :whoa: :puke:

Kind of Off topic, But I saw something similar on e-bay a while back.

Edge lit LED plaque, and I found a vendor that would let be design my own.

Order will go in on Monday, I'll post the results when I get them.

Always looking for that next needed accessory,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Walking though the consignment shop with the Wife, I heard a voice speak to me. It sounded just like Yogi Bear, saying that we needed a "Pick-a-Nic" Basket..............And, there it was. :clap:

Off to the grocery store to buy that item that was missing.
