I think they change the design of the plugs every few years. Of the strands that actually worked, they wouldn't fit together!
Mike- your sons must love your display! Can you get a pic of it at night? Do you do anything in the back yard?

Mike your house looks great !!!!
It is a good idea to put a row of candles outside. It is pretty good that you got C-7 bulbs for decoration.
After testing all of the lights, strand by strand, my son and I headed out into the cold to start decorating. We quickly discovered that somewhere between the basement and the front porch, about 50% of our lights had stopped working. So, being the creative, adaptive people that we are, we devised Plan B. We got most of the lights up, and once again, about 50% of those lights had stopped working.
It was at that point that we decided that we will not have outdoor lights this year.
But the inside looks great!
I really cut back on my outside lights this year. Just one large shrub, around the front door and a small hanging tree. Don't feel like making the power company rich this year
Your place looks Great Mike. Good Job :).
I really wish I could do my lights like this, but I don't even know where I would begin.
My daughter found this while looking for Frozen decorations. :)
