Mr. & Mrs. Beav and I were there 1/2 hour before things started - and Bill was already there along with the Laura Leflang, the spouse of the area rep, Jamie.

I'd say the turnout was a bit sparse -- perhaps half of the number who came to the same store the same time last year. But there were a lot of pre-sales for Bill to sign, so maybe one of those Kilauea's will be on the way to you.

As usual, Bill keeps everyone's attention as he relates stories about lighthouses and Harbour Lights. And for the children, he gave gifts of the Big Bay Point LH Ornament.

Millies had exapanded their store by 50% over the last year and most of that space seems to be used for Dept56. Very nice displays of the product arranged in villages.

No WACKOs that I know of there -- but some people acknowledged that they did visit the web site.
