Apparently, Santa is not so busy going through the final month of hurriedly checking his list (twice) and overseeing the loading of his sleigh to be certain each deserving child receives a gift (or lump of coal) commensurate with their behavior this year.Nope, turns out Saint Nick has time to coax potential new residents into this West Side apartment complex I passed by today. I fully expected my first actual eyes-on sighting of Santa to be soon after Thanksgiving; I just didn't expect it to be here.
My brother-in-law used to always tell the kids he had seen Santa ordering a Jack and Coke down at Barton's Boozery. Good times.
Where was your first Santa sighting of the year?UPDATE: Santa moved to a different corner today and turns out, he's a chick. Isn't there a Santa Union or something?UPDATE #2: Santa has an impostor out there, and this time the chick is dressed as a gorilla pretending to be Santa.

We're going to see Santa tomorrow. Theere's a really cool old world style Santa that walks around this little tourist trap/shopping area off a rest stop in Beckley. It sells crafts from all WV artisans and they have excellent, upscale food. It's a fun time.
BTW, the Evil Twin said, "That Dave who post on your blog sometimes? He must be in the military or former." and I said, "You're right." and he laughed. He said he could tell by the "clean, dry and serviceable" comment! :-)
Clean, Dry, and Serviceable, That's me!
