I have been doing a lot of camping lately and have been using the local stone , when bout 100' away is a stream with some large light colored stones. Thanks for the jog in memory.<br /><br />ShortyShortynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-4665021238738116432011-10-27T09:27:30.979-05:002011-10-27T09:27:30.979-05:00that's a great idea! we have TONS of candles ...that's a great idea! we have TONS of candles and i will be on the lookout for an old fixture like you have there to increase to output.<br /><br />thanks rw!jambaloneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13084215893557618903noreply@blogger.com
