Now they are everywhere and you don't see as many of the traditional, multi-colored fat ones.dbdubyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08462665006132459258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-45967196015286531662009-12-14T16:27:31.210-08:002009-12-14T16:27:31.210-08:00Nice lights!

Christmas memories for me are hours spent at Johnny Weidemeyer's house, which smelled of evergreen branches and smoke from his American Flyer train. Nothing like those to smells to remind me of Christmas holidays.<br /><br />I knew of two brothers named Tannenbaum. One was a United States Tax Court Judge.

A little joy, a lot of light...am happy to see it..it does give me a little link to the economy---no huge tree, not laden with ornaments or presents, just lights, mostly on, bringing happiness.Trishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12388261083998643091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-49804596025425108352009-12-14T13:01:30.786-08:002009-12-14T13:01:30.786-08:00Oh I love it too!
