The general idea behind the blue panels is to have them backlit like a computer screen. We have a solar panel donated by the NCSU Solar House that works – hooking it up is another matter! If it’s not hooked up with matching amps etc., it can explode! We gave up that idea and decided to use it as a prop; we purchased a kit of fairy lights with a small solar panel. The lights are strung around the inside of the monitor frame and are bright enough for the writing to be legible in the dark.
Collecting street sign pictures took a lot more time than I anticipated! After 6 hours of driving, I had 14 signs! That doesn’t count the hours I spent plotting the route….I never did make it to Durham and Chapel Hill! The time paid off, the Mooopedia pages look really good! You may notice that there is a black box where an image is missing – believe it or not – it’s Waldo! (Waldo’s been found!)
WiFi is in such tight quarters that we can’t get great pictures of her finished so we will take pictures on moooving day!
Stay tuned for Mookey’s story.
