Happily, I live in Orange County, California, so I don't know about Texas! Maurie PS. I'm not related to Jackson or Perkins. Just love that rose and Disneyland.

I want the Disney Wonder or some other Disney ship to pull up to my door and deliver roses! Shoot, I'd even be happy with Donald's boat -- it could even water the flowers for me as it was delivering.

I'll have to check at our Rose Emporium here and see if they might be expecting any... That picture was just beautiful and I'd love to have some Disneyland roses! I'd have to have a pot, too, though. Of course, with my luck with roses, they'd die in a week.
Originally Posted By velogirl oh I want that castle! when did they say that would be available? And the rose, yep, that too. I could build the whole park around the rose and, and....then I'd have to cut up my credit card! But really, when is the castle available, anyone know?
Originally Posted By tgtman I was wondering the same thing as ahecht. Will the other models be able to connect together or will the be all individual pieces?
Originally Posted By incitehawaii Wow, being a poor college student that model might have to take priority over my food money! From the looks of the base of the model it looks like the pieces will fit together. Also, the update says a miniature train will work around the finished model, so I'm guessing everything snaps together...

Great update!! just curious how does the lights on Small World look against the white background?
