The Village - Christmas Underway!

It takes a village.....for me anyway!

My Christmas celebration is always inclusive of the construction of my village...er, villages! There are actually four.

It begins with the boxes.....this pic is about half of them.
This is an in-progress shot of the left side (about 1/4th) of the villages....Primarily the "downtown" area with fire station, post office, city hall, a savings and loan and shops....
This is a close up from the above picture. It is the shops, and my carolers. They all will be lit when wiring is complete. The carolers sing and their gaslights glow as the figures move to the music.
This is a close up of the left half of the 2nd tier of the right side....the farm! Complete with barn-house, farmhouse, barn, and grist water mill plus smaller items not yet in place...including the horses and hay still in their plastic container.
Love my village, but it is a massive job, and takes more than an hour just to truck the stuff from three 6ft by 4ft cabinets in my den to the living room. Wiring is a nightmare. Ya gotta love it or you'd never do it.

Much left to do, but had to post some "in-progress".
