I noticed that the website for this year's Santa Claus Parade has been recently updated. The theme is still unknown, but the date has been chosen as Saturday, November 14. Lord_Robert has suggested we enter a float this year. I think this is something we should all put our minds towards.

Yeah a smaller scale project is if we can get the AT-ST good enough It maybe able to go on a low lying trailer and have the Ewoks skying off the back from ropes. The big catch is the whole thing can not be taller then 13 ft. high.

I now have the perfect tailer. 4.5' wide and 8' long the deck id 16" and the sides come off. and to think it only cost $1199+tax and licencing.

So the at-st is 11'8" the trailer is 1'4" equiling the max hight for floots at 13'

The planning may commence.

I'm going to use my van. That way kids can sit in the van to keep warm untill it starts. Also I'm setting it up with my insurance company too. Also I've got 2 power outlets for lights and music, plus the lights can fasten on to the roof racks, neither you or I would want tape on the paint.

So everything is set to have a float in the parade. As alaways we want everyones input and ideas on what we are going to do. I have 2 ideas that involve the AT-ST and 4 Ewoks. The theme is a storybook Christmas.

We can have 4 Ewoks on snow skies being pulled by the AT-ST.

We can have 4 Ewoks in a sled like elves beinig pulled by and AT-ST.

Four ewoks being pulled with a rope around one foot of the AT-ST? If they are on a sled, it can be made of branches and rope to look like something made in a forest, maybe looking something like a dogsled.

I was thinking if we could do a strobe light on the at-st the give it more of a moving affect. Anyone have a strobe light?

Brad Moon from wired.com's Geek Dad will be looking for us in the parade this year. He's hoping to get a good picture to put on the geek dad blog.

My X-wing Pilot costume is being overhauled for the SW Concert at the ACC (Nov 26) and it likely won't be ready for the parade date. So, depending on my mood and the other costumes that are out, I'll either march in my Jedi robes, or in my Imperial Technician (IC-3909) uniform.
