After Christmas Batch 6.0
We have come to the end of the Christmas Countdown journey. I hope everyone enjoyed my posts. The very last house is noted as Reindeer Manor but, I don’t see any Reindeer. Oh, well. Have a grand New Year’s Eve and I will see you next year. ~Vic

This one is not gingerbread but, it is interesting. The second one is another take on Barbie. ~Vic

I’m not entirely sure that the Earth Globe thing is gingerbread. I think the gingerbread people are stuck into a styrofoam ball. If that is a gingerbread ball, I want to see the “ball” cake pan.

This is a really neat Barbie house. I had a Barbie house, too, when I was little. It was one of those 70s Townhouses. ~Vic

This is really cool, right up there with the Victorian. How do they make the glass windows? ~Vic

I don’t know Jason Hawkins but, a buddy of mine, that runs the town’s hardware store, displayed this one. I am not surprised at all, either. He is a character and, apparently, so is the Hawkins guy. ~Vic

This is my last countdown post. I’ve saved my favorite gingerbread house for last. I’ve been inside this place and you can feel its history. Unfortunately, I didn’t take any pictures when I was there. Before the world went insane, Ayr Mount would host Scottish Festivals. ~Vic
