EVERY STORE, STREETLIGHT AND TREE WERE DECORATED IN A FESTIVE WAY. CHEERFUL MUSIC PLAYED, INSIDE, OUTSIDE RESTURANT AND SHOP. PEOPLE WERE FRIENDLY. THE CLERKS WERE ALL HELPFUL AND WISHED YOU HAPPY. SHOPPERS WERE POLITE AND CONGENIAL. A LOVELY UPBEAT PLAYFUL TIME.
BUT NOW, ANYTHING RELATED TO THE AMERICAN HOLIDAY, IS CLANDESTINE, SECRETED AWAY IN CORNERS OUT OF THE WAY. HOBBY STORES NOW CARRY THE DECORATIONS.
I REALLY MISS IT.
I GUESS VALENTINES DAY, EASTER, AND HALLOWEEN ARE NEXT, AFTER THAT- OF COURSE WOULD BE OUR 4TH OF JULY.
PRETTY SOON, NO HOLIDAYS AT ALL. JUST DAYS OFF, WITH NO MEANING OR SIGNIFICANCE.

Hello, I wanted to let you know that through a Google search I found the post you did about the Emma Clear doll on your former blog and found it very interesting. We have a doll club website, www.justaboutdolls.com and I also have two blogs, www.justaboutdolls.blogger.com and www.geekyoldlady.blogger.com. You may enjoy seeing what we are currently doing. I am hoping that you live near me so you can visit our doll club. Arleen
