I threading I go
It is early in the weekend for New Eves but I am working on doing a python script for threading. I need one of the esp32s to work on displaying lights but then stop when I tell it to, and then do something else. So far it looks ok. I think I put too much on my plate.

Neopixel sign
I have an update. I have been working on a new neopixel sign to replace my older Halloween radio sign. The Neopixel sign will be controlled by a esp32 client, which is controlled by a raspberry pi server. I might be able to get it to display what is actually being played on the radio too. I guess we will see. I actually had help in producing the letters etc for the neopixels. I want to give a shoutout to Clayton Darwin. He actually has been helping with the code. I actually didn't want to copy from what he sent, but learn from it. Mainly because I almost need to make my own to get it work with server. And plus it has a lot of functions that I really don't need. But thank you Clayton!!

Couldn't wait
I decided I couldn't wait for the esp32s that were coming from China to play so I got one from Amazon. Came on Friday. As you can see here I am connecting it to a RPI and programming it with Python. The code that I had for the client that I have been messing with worked great on this little unit. All I had to do was add a wifi connect code in the python code to get it to connect. It worked great. This particular esp32 I am going to connect it to a neopixel array and have it do a light show, with saying "Happy Halloween" and listing how many days until Halloween. I can't wait. The neopixels come today and then the power supply comes Monday.
