It was a beautiful, clear and warm December day.
One thing that I became fascinated with was called MoneyLectric. It was a series of LED lights mounted radially on a wheel between the spokes. It would project various images as the wheel turned. It had a moving monkey, Simpson Characters, Anime figures, designs, American Flag and picture of President Barach Obama. Web site is Here.
