Model T Christmas village

Post by thom » Sat Nov 28, 2020 6:52 pm

My wife and daughter decorated the house for Christmas, yes we still say Merry Christmas at my house, and my daughter created this little village for me. Two Ts and an Olds. :D

Thanks DM Deaton.

I don't know anyone who has ever stopped saying "Merry Christmas." Even my non-Christian friends wish me a "Merry Christmas" and I gladly return the appropriate greeting. It is a time when all people can celebrate and I'm happy to see you getting into the spirit. Goodness knows, this has been a hard year for everyone so any joy we can bring is welcome.

I was at the drugstore looking at boxed Christmas cards. There were 2 I really liked. Both featured Santa and glitter NEITHER ONE had the words MERRY or CHRISTMAS on them. What the heck!!!! If it wasn't for Christmas Santa wouldn't even have a job!!

Does it make sense to not have Christ in Christmas?

For my money, it's a great time of years to celebrate the best way you know how.
Best wishes to all of you.

Here is our Christmas village with a Ford garage and a skating rink. If you look close, there is a speedster parked at the Ford garage.

.....notice how every one of those Model T's are parked at a weird angle, taking up all of what could have been 3 parking spaces, just to avoid the possibility of "door dings! Such nerve !!! .....right?

At first I thought they were parked at 'artististic' angles too, but they're probably facing down hill for a rolling start.
