Howard,

Here are some miniature Ten Cent City ornaments that Mary made for charity. I think they are adorable. She loves your patterns.

Lucy...

Let Mary know that old Howard is very impressed!...well done...I know that a lot of time and effort had to be put into making that many houses...

Are you sure she didn't buy them at the five and ten cent store?...oh, wait...there are no stores like that anymore!... :lol:

My very best regards...

Howard...

note...i'll be posting a "family portrait" of all 20 houses before thanksgiving...

also note...in january i'll be starting on "chapter two" of the "ten cent city" series...stay tuned...

my very best regards...

howard...
