The photo op at the end was slightly more organized than 2019, and the changing area building was unlocked afterwards so we didn't freeze 20min waiting to get inside. We got 1/2 through and were basically walking in traffic, no cops, no workers, and no spectators except people pissed off in waiting cars.īut as always we made the best of it and had a good time. Good thing, because they extended the parade route but apparently DIDN'T TELL ANYONE ELSE. I ended up holding the hand of a jawa in red robes that also couldn't see E36 M3 with the lights and her own light up eyes blinding her. Her eye lenses fogged immediately and a cop in front of us with flashing lights meant she was blind. We had a Jeep club to follow, and a new Ewok costume that was being tested used a Jeep.

I attached the Santa hat again using rare earth magnets inside the white trim and helmet. Temps around 34F and wind meant I chose the AT-ST driver that I could layer up underneath. Saturday night was the parade and Xmas tree lighting at Austin Landing in Dayton. Maybe if my stormtrooper gets enough wear damage I'll do that someday. Everyone said the mask was pretty cool, I'm glad I chose it.Īnd always fun to see Nick bring out the Zombie Death Trooper, he's been tweaking it for almost 3 years now. I couldn't tell which ones were active so I just went with it. I had SWMBO hold my phone so I could swap the faces once or twice, quickly realized she was playing with all of them and having fun. Some of the animations were better than others. Eventually I just lifted it up once in awhile and wiped the lenses with my gloved fingers. After 30 minutes I couldn't see at all, but everyone else had the same issue. The only issue with the mask was 5 minutes outside and the cold damp fogged up the lens pretty good. I wore the jawa to try out the new LCD mask and even being cool and damp I was pretty comfy.

2 years ago it was moved inside a high school for rain, this year the rain didn't start till after the event had started around 6pm but luckily it didn't get heavy or last long. Maybe I'll add a few back for history, maybe not.

I can't even edit the posts to see which file names are missing, the tags aren't there at all. I see I'm missing photos on this thread from 12/15/19 through April. Last night was the Ghostly Night Out in Brookville OH. I got an email from my hosting company that they had a major hard drive failure.
