No traipsing off to the crowded mall to visit Santa this year.
Santa flew in to the regional airport this morning to visit with
the many children assembled there,
Baby Granddaughter among them.
This bustling parking lot is empty most days.
While families waited for Santa's arrival, the crew at the snack bar,
dressed for the season, cheerfully served up heaping plates of really good food.
This gorgeous little plane adorned the top of the refrigerator,
while this old beauty adorned the field.
The crowd was summoned to the gate, as Santa's plane approached.
After a quick fly-by, with the waiting crowd throwing up their hands in greeting,
Santa's plane slowly made its way to its parking place,
and out emerged the jolly man in red, accompanied by his elf.
Santa made his way to the decorated lobby
where he visited with each and every child
and posed for countless photos.
While Baby Granddaughter loved the decorations,
gobbled up her scrambled eggs,
hugged the children waiting in line,
enjoyed playing in the field while she waited,
she wanted absolutely nothing to do with the jolly man in red.
Maybe next year.
What a unique way to welcome in the holiday season!
