An Excellent Idea from a Friend

Last week, a thunderstorm rolled through our neighborhood and a huge
Oak tree came down on some power lines, creating a power outage
For a large area around us.   We lost power for about 5 hours.

We were scrambling around in the darkness, looking for matches,
Candles, flashlights, etc.

We looked outside, and noticed our solar lights shining brightly all
Around our patio, stairs, dock, etc.  They were beautiful.  Pat 
Walked outside, and brought several of the solar lights inside.

We stuck the solar light pipes into plastic drink bottles containers
And they made the nicest, brightest, safest, lighting you could
Ever imagine.

We put one in the bathroom, the kitchen, the living room, etc.  There was
Plenty of light. There are all types of solar lights available.

We put them all around our yard.   They look
Nice and they do not attract flying bugs like the outdoor
Lights around our doorway.

The lights we have fit into the small (20oz) water bottles and
They also fit into most of the larger liter bottles.  If you need
A weight in the plastic bottle to keep them from tipping over,
You can put a few of the pretty colorful "flat marbles" that they
Put in aquariums, and vases.  (you can also use sand, aquarium
Gravel, etc., whatever you have available).

The lights we have were perfect inside our home.   They burn 
All night long if you need them.

The next day, you just take your solar lights back outside and they
Will instantly recharge and be ready  for you to use again any time
You need them.
