Sparkle Magic

When we were in Hickory Creek before, one evening we were out walking after dark (the night that a church had chili over in another part of the campground - usually we would not be out walking after dark!). We saw a tree that appeared to have small green lights decorating it. We couldn't imagine that someone had gotten up in a tree and decorated it - and discovered that there was a small light on the ground that was lighting the tree with lots and lots of tiny lights.

We did an online search and found a couple of possible products. I walked over to the campsite a few times during the day and never found anyone at home. I finally noticed that they were packing up and hurried over there. They had already packed the light, but the lady said that it was something "sparkle".

We found "Sparkle Magic" lights on Amazon.

They were a bit pricey, but we thought about different places that we would be staying and that we would enjoy it, so ordered and got them from a friend's house (thank you, Chuck and Dorothy!) on Tuesday.

We tried them out on a tree at our campsite in Hickory Creek starting last night.

The pictures with my phone weren't all that stellar, or "sparkle" or "magic"...
lint on the camera lens?
really?
Oooohhhh - I see something!
A little more...
Well, ok... but...
So, my sweet husband got out the nice SLR with tripod to give it a "shot":
A little better than the phone!

And even better...
Wow - that's nice!!! - you can even see Miss Doozie over to the right side - she is getting a few of the lights on her also. Sparkle! Magic! Wow!!!
