Since I never cared for them, should I be sad; or should I be smart and start collecting them to sell on EBay in future years??
Did any of you ever have them?? Here in the mountainous deserts, they just didn't seem to fit, but I have to admit they can look nice in a tropical-style backyard, and they don't leave any "calling cards" on the lawn, to squish between bare toes

I am "lucky" enough to own two pairs of them!!! When I turned forty I received alot of plastic lawn ornaments including two pairs of pink flamingo's. I better keep them packed away so they won't be stolen!!

NO! Say it ain't so! First go the flamingos and then the gnomes. Oh, the humanity...


My sister has one perched atop her compost pile. Within view of the golf community behind her.

The North Pole!
Couldn't read without registering either. Gnomes and pink flamingos on their way out - what is the world coming to! No - I have none of either!
