HERE COMES SANTA

HERE COMES SANTA!!!



Stickers for the above page. The church  and the houses didn't have stickers to put on the page. 


Another card from the book. 



In the Raider the messenger Robbie sent to Rosalin's brother has returned but instead of immediately agreeing to a truce, wants to meet up with him at Melrose Abbey.  Now that it's finally time to say goodbye to Rosalin, he is reluctant
Melrose Abbey

 to let her go. The same can be said about Rosalin. She does not want to have to say farewell to Robbie, even though it would mean living in less than luxurious surroundings. 
As you are probably familiar with from earlier posts, I like to look up places mentioned in historical novels. Melrose Abbey must have been very impressive in it's hay day if the ruins of the church are anything to go by. There are times where I would love to take a time machine back in time just to see what these places actually looked like before they were torn down, or for whatever reason, dismantled. Churches now, just aren't as magnificent as those built in bygone eras. though some of them, especially the catholic churches, are pretty spectacular just not on the scale of those built centuries ago.



The paper doll for today is from 1949.


12 18 1949


Here is the strip that accompanied the paper doll.







Til tomorrow...                           Aloha!!!
