Sun Jam

Well, the old garden is not providing anything this summer so I've decided to preserve some sunshine instead. Saw a "Sun Jar" advertised on some website for $4o. Figured that was a little steep so bought a 4-pack of solar garden lights for $20, rechargeable batteries included. Also bought some fancy little jam jars and some plastic tumblers for less than a dollar apiece. Gutted the lamps and inserted into jars. With a full day of sun they easily shine all night!

The ingenious gardner reaps whatever he can from the Big Guy in the sky.

I was amply impressed with your solar-powered stereo. This reminds me of the sort of lifestyle I should aspire to - easy to forget, working in an overly-climate controlled office all day.

Hey Prairyerth, you said " amp"ly. I get it, anyway if you want to try some "green" lifestyle changes try the old-fashioned solar/wind powered clothes dryer; towels and sheets never smelled so good...
