I hear Happy Holidays so often I am almost reluctant to wish someone a Merry Christmas, but Merry Christmas nevertheless.
I just put my electric trains under the tree, a set of 1920 Lionel and I guess it is fair to say, they don’t make them like that anymore. They were my father’s when he was a boy and all I have left of the original set is the engine, but it runs and I have managed to replace the missing cars and track. My children have long ago out grown playing with trains (as if that is ever really possible), but a new generation of grandchildren is starting to enjoy them albeit for only a few minutes at a time.
The way things are going these days, the trains may be the most valuable thing I have left to give them, the rest will be somewhere in the US treasury. Blast, I wanted to avoid politics this one day.
Ho, Ho, Ho enjoy the day for tomorrow we spend again.
