So Many Santas



Santas buying tickets at Huntington railroad station


and the elves that had arrived at Penn Station


and the helpers with costumes and smiles


and Santas bent on snagging a beer 


gosh they we rushing about


but all very cheery


just what we need!


Quite something to look at 


while you wait with your mother.


Was it Santas who decorated the dead sunflower on the corner?
I'm glad someone did.


And when I got home from a party, there was a parcel from Scotland to greet me.

That's a staggering amount of Santas. This is my son's first year not believing so I haven't had to queue up this Christmas. A mixed blessing!

And let us hope that all those Santas stayed sober.
Oooo! A pressie from Scotland!

Elizabeth, I was lucky to see some of the Saturday Santa band collecting during my subway ride downtown to work. Lots of jingling bells at the Times Square station.

Shall we plan on joining the festivities next year?!!!

A colorful and cheery post in a world temporarily drained of color. Thank you for starting my week with a smile.

I had no idea that Santa(s) needed to purchase rail tickets.
