  1. Got two solar yard lights from Harbor Freight.

    Took the panels off, trimmed plastic from back, drilled holes for mounting screws, soldered extension wire for LED lights.

    Removed plastic ground stake part from lights. Cut old wooden handle in half, slotted ends, mounted lights, dropped into plastic horn tubes, cable ties galore.

    Even on panels, so maybe no yoinky my 18650 batteries, dammit.

    Downpointy lights light inside of box again!

    Thus have I rehorned my literary #jackalope

  6. Book box in front of house was unlit last night.

    I'd built a jackalope gargoyle head, put it at the top of the box. Then for the jackalope horns, I had used a yard light solar panel and LED light, light positioned to light box interior.

    It was gone last night.

    Someone had yoinked the horns. Cutting the wiring. Disappointing. But at least I can say this completely novel sentence:

    "I say! Some fellow of leisurely moral development has stolen the horns of my solar jackalope!"
