I was born in 61. So, I liked Christmas in the 60s and 70s.

Me too. Could you imagine our grandparents placing real candles on a live tree!

My Step Father still put real candles on the tree up until my Mother died in 2009.

My Dad was born in 24 and told us they got to light the candles and watch them for only a few minutes before snuffing them out.

My Dad's mother had a fancy aluminum tree with the color wheel; It was mezmorizing.

My aunt next door had one of those......and they seem to be a collector's item now.

Had one of those too. 60’s the best era. Take me back just for an hour. My Grandparents, the aroma from the kitchen. Never duplicated.
