Plywood Santa seems to wave to the neighbors across the street

Lloyd made the set when son John was still a baby back in 1969. Lloyd did decide not to put the set up one year back in the 1970s. He soon heard from his neighbor across the street, Helen Dean, who told Lloyd that she missed the Santa and Reindeer display. Lloyd put them up and they have been up every year since with a little fresh paint upkeep over the years. It should keep giving holiday cheer to passersby for many years to come, just like it did for Helen before she passed away.
