anyone else remember that time when garden gnomes were being 'kidnapped' and taken on trips with their photos in front of famous landmarks before being returned?

(I will admit to having all of these! the gnomes were my mother's, which I thought were tacky, and a little creepy looking. but I took a couple after she died and they stand like sentries on my balcony. they have not been taken on any trips. the matryoshka dolls collection increased when I was given several from a friend who thought her mother's collection was a little creepy. I love them)
Next month, we'll move on to some travelling ideas of our own.

I liked the mysterious travelling gnome book. Lots of tchochtkes choices in the postcards.

I had not heard of gnome kidnapping! The first thing that came to my mind was the gnomes in the movie Full Monty.
