64 for me. I walk past the stuff and don't even see it. I guess I think about different things now.
I sure found it enchanting as a child though and when the kids were young.

It's *because* everything has changed so much, that I appreciate anything that takes me back to childhood sensations at Christmas. When the frost landed a few days ago, I dragged out some original older lights I have and just plugged them in by the window, no arrangement. I enjoy it so much, I'm almost mesmerized by the colour of the lights, like I was in the '50s & '60s...

are great. I would rather put up 25 of these than 200 of the led ones that don't really shine anyway.
