Very cool. And nice space to be filling.

looks cool!  i couldn’t precisely see the figure with the santa cap but “ape on a fire escape” seems like a cool theme.

Thank you !

Down in the corner is Santa Gargoyle Claus

when we first got the balconies I would hang my daughter's doll from one arm off the balcony. Unnerving to some, sense of completeness to others.

Looking for an egg ornament from a few years to sneak up there in the summer. I think my local dealer may have one.

eggtoberfests prize bags used to include a bge ornament with the year. maybe salt and pepper shakers or something could be an option.

well, this spring we found a solution for a blank spot of wall that needed some 3-D art as a painting or print would be lost. it's 18' high at the top of the wall and no way to look directly at it unless you can hover or brought a ladder. found these funky (and local!) fire escapes. So of course I had to decorate them this year.

Tell me you don't have cats without telling me.

Yeah. We have a Lionel scale running around ours. My dad has had trains my whole life. I don't know if all of them are still set up but each of my sons have layouts in his basement.

Like a lot of threads around these parts. Fitting.

every year one of the "Jazz Ladies" gets into the spirit of Christmas

Last December at Chick-fa-la an elderly man (yes I'm 80 myself, but this old boy was OLD!) was giving these to youngsters who came in. I talked with his son who was almost my age and he said his father had made 221 of these!  He suddenly  bestowed these on us and called us "young"! How can a person turn down a gift after that assessment about our age?

sweet! I like the button headlights.
