This year's additions were again found by my sister Barbara: a wonderful horse and buggy, along with a set of Lionel lamp posts. She also
created a repro lakkie for me, since we all now know how $carce they've become! Since the layout of the village is essentially the same as
last year, I decided to try to capture its warm glow and mellow colors with some close-ups. Enjoy and Merry Christmas.

Really cute buggy - beats my Dept 56 sleigh all hollow! I love the charming little vignette of the couple sitting on a bench with their dog close by. Love that church to and I have a version of it. Lovely village but you can post more pictures for me! Tom

Love this. My grandchildren have become enraptured with them. It seems anything grandma likes now a days, they like also. It is amazing to me, that my one granddaughter seems to be drawn to exactly the same things I am. I would love to see a close up of some the larger houses. Very nice display.

Thanks, guys, for all your nice comments. Here's a couple of close-ups. The middle photo is a repro of the Porsche House made by my sister Barbara.
