Santa roams the neighborhood

Tonight was the night that the fire department pulls Santa’s sleigh around the neighborhood and distributes treats to kids.  I’m not completely sure what the whole story is, but a couple of years ago, Jenny and I heard sirens and saw lights, and we went out to see what was happening.  We followed the sound of the sirens around the corner, and saw a set of emergency vehicles, one of which was pulling Santa in a sleigh on a trailer.  Every year since, we’ve gone out to see this little mini-parade.  I’m sure that there is a story behind all of this, but I just don’t know what it is. 

In other news, Monday night is the next meeting for our Civic League, and we’re having a bit of a holiday party along with our meeting.  It should be fun.  We’ve been getting some encouraging words from lots of people lately, which I’ll take as a good sign.  Yay us!
