Every year on Christmas Eve without fail. Other than It’s a Wonderful Life, it’s my favorite.

Wife really wanted one of these so she got the parts and I figured out how to put it together. Currently now on display in our front window...

I was paying close attention to "Ralphie's" facial expressions throughout the Movie and was easy to miss with all the other hilarious things going on.

The stories writer Jean Shepard - used to to be a radio person personality, and grew up where my parent did in Northern Indiana.

We listen to Shep on the radio as a kid and he was an incredible story teller.

If you want to laugh his book "in god we trust all others pay cash" continues the story of Flick, Kissel, and Scut Farkas (and the murderous mariah)

We visited the house a couple of months ago. It was a fun experience. The guy who was our tour host was really into it. Worth doing if in the area.
