for 30 to 40 committed/creative members to put on a very professional display of about 450 creches loaned from LDS as well as other community members. The photos do not truly do justice to what the eyes can see, and definitely do not catch the peaceful and reverent atmosphere with wonderful Christmas music playing at all times, either from a CD, from a talented elder on the piano, or from various performers including a superb harp player who brought joy and peace to all who heard her sing and play. This is worth going to for a cost, let alone it’s all free! Dad played the role of one of the magi from the East (someone joked “wise guy” from the East) in a live nativity presentation. Over 2000 visitors came to view the exhibit, many are return “customers”.

Very pretty! We'll have to see it next year. This is an annual thing right?
It looks great, they always do such a nice job. I feel privileged that I was able to see and enjoy the exhibit last year. It really is beautiful! And I'm sure you did a great job playing the wise guy dad... nothing new for you, right?! heh heh heh.
Very Nice dad... What a great missionary tool! Have a Merry Christmas and have fun in Oregon. Hope you like our present to you!!!
I hope you had fun being the only authentic wise guy (bwah ha ha!) from the east! Nice displays -- I suppose you had many different companies and private individuals contributing from all over Bangor? I can hardly recognize the gym it's so nicely done up! How did you get a photo of yourself -- wasn't mom at her interview while you were on stage?
