Hey there -- looks like you've been visiting The Christmas Place in Pigeon Forge. Great pictures - surprised the stores let you take them -- I got blasted the last time I tried to do that. I'll be up there the week before Christmas -- hoping to have snow like last year! -- Happy Holidays -- keep up the good work -- love your photos!

Hi Michele, thanks for stopping by our Christmas tree album. You look forward to the blazing fire and the snow. We have Christmas in front of the airconditioner or at the beach. Just depends on how hot it gets. A couple of years ago we had Bushfires for Christmas. No Power for four days. Hope this ones better Love and Hugs and enjoy your real Christmas with snow etc. Chris and Jay

Great photos of dear old Santa, Pud! I loved each and every one of them! What a great idea for an album! Thanks for your recent guestbook entry in my Tasty Textures album. I always love to hear from you! Candi

said candistackable 2005.11.26 at 11:54:07 PST

Great album. I especially liked #56 as there was a picture of a Yankee candle. I used to live near there but now live in a seaside resort in Maine where we have seasonal trollies named with a theme, "Molly, Jolly, Holly, Dolly, etc.". a couple of years ago my daughter and I went to Yankee Candle and sure enough there was our "Holly" trolley transporting people from the parking lot to the front door of the store. That is just a little tidbit. Hope you and yours have a wonderful holiday season. Janet/Maine

Michele, I am a creator of email stationery. I was viewing your photography at http://community.webshots.com/user/pud623. I am just in awe of your talent. Everything is so beautiful! In my work, I have only use my own images, graphics I have permission to use or those that I have purchased on a cd. As I respect artist rights, I would like to request permission to use your photographs to create my email stationery. I do not now nor do I ever intend to sell my stationery that I use images other than my own. This is a hobby for me. I create using other people's artwork strictly for non-commercial use. I was just amazed and decided to be brave and ask. *smiles* Please note that the images on the stationery is watermarked with my name/logo on the frame creation and a watermark is placed on your photograph with your name and credit is given in the footer as well as a link to your choice of destination. If use of your images is allowed for, I will link back to http://community.webshots.com/user/pud623 on the stationary. I will also watermark any image that doesn't have a readable signature with your name. I want to thank you in advance for your consideration of my proposal and I anxiously await your response

I'm sorry, but Sinterklaas is NOT the same as Santa Claus. Sinterklaas celebrates his birthday on December 6th.. it's actually celebrated the evening before. He's a roman bishop with a red clothes. They have a lot in common, but they are NOT the same! : )

Hello Michele, I love this album so much that I had to see the slideshow again. My favorite is the first shot. I noticed that it is featured in the Holiday section on the homepage. Great work from you! Thank you for your kind comments regarding my recently featured album. May you and yours have a truly blessed Christmas and a happy new year to come. Candi

Hi Michele, I wanted to touch base with you before you're off and running on that Christmas vacation...Sounds like a winner to me! Jer and I have been back in town since right before Thanksgiving. Obviously, you didn't receive my Christmas Greeting by email. Drop me an E before you leave. I want to get your suggestions as to the type of new camera I'm getting! Yes, I've finally decided to go digital (I think!) I just hate learning new mechanical doo-hickeys...but I think it's about time I entered into the digital generation, don't you? {*; Man, from the way I'm sounding you'd think I was 90 something! BTW, I DO love this new Christmas album of yours. As always...Great work! Char (Your Pal from New England) P.S. Thanks for signing my "Antiques" G/B. I have SO many more to add if I ever find the time. Old photos are always fun/funny...{^: Merry Christmas!

said charjer 2005.12.18 at 05:21:47 PST

Dear Michele, WHERE did you find all those Santas???? I'm amazed! Thank you so much for your greeting at my webshots page. I'm afraid I've been so busy this year I really haven't been getting too many pictures. Alas, if you want to see snow it will have to be somewhere other than our beach. It's always a bit warmer here which is why I love it here! Not that we have NEVER had snow..I think I have some pics where we get a dusting. Ironically, it snowed in Portland and Oregon City today! Now they are getting freezing rain, poor things. Everything shuts down when they get a little snow. LOL Merry Christmas to you and yours. (Your last pic was my fav..I was so glad to see it! )

said sueso 2005.12.19 at 01:57:15 PST

Hi, Michele, I write to you from Italy. Congratulations for your album! Very nice pictures. Beautiful collection. Excuse my english. I live near Venice and I have a Santa with gondola and reindeer, but I have no photo of it. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!, Nadia, Italy
