I have a feeling that Photobucket changed their permissions setup. The photos were very nice, really. :-)

Yup...I switched over to Flickr figuring they'll do the same thing in a few years. If I get time I'll go back and edit/repost via Flickr...maybe...sigh...

Those are some very nice snaps, very nostalgic. Only a little more than four months 'til the big day!

What's up with Dept. 56 these days? I don't see that much of it around anymore. I still have a decent pile of pieces, but I'll admit to not having had them out for quite a few years. A generational thing, perhaps.
