Our tree looked just like that - even had only blue ornaments. I watched it for hours also. A couple of years ago a friend was talking about how he had this aluminum tree that he drug out each year just for laughs. I talked him out of it and it has a prominent place each year at my house. I need a different color wheel. The one that I bought from him is an even earlier version with glass panes - the plastic panes cast colors better. Great memories!
