Hello to you all.
As I said yesterday, today I will talk about the Elves and the workshops. I'll start with the easy one...the Workshops.
OK, first off Santa can not make all the toys needed by himself. So he has Elves that do the majority of the work. I also hire out the items we cannot make, but that's not much. Yes, we do take a vacation each year. We shut everything down for the month of January. But the naughty and nice list is active all year long.
I was asked almost every day how I know what's going on? Well, I have helpers everywhere. I send Elves out everyday to see what is going on, even Santa and his look-a-likes go out. I was asked if I or my Elves can see into houses/bedrooms/ bathrooms...and the truthful answer is NO. But like anything else in the world, people talk; and alot. We really try to stay away from gossip, that is why each list is checked sometimes twice just to make sure (and if it is a close call, we always go for the nice list).
Just for the record, the song "The 12 Days of Christmas" has nothing to do with the days BEFORE Christmas; it's about the 12 days AFTER Christmas.
Now to the Elves. I have posted a few pictures of them already, but I do have a picture of the full crew that I will scan in as soon as I can. I had a great bunch with me from the North Pole, I will give you there English first names. Here we go Courtney (photos), Tasha (photos), Berry (everything), Pat (everything), Bob (nuts and kid games), Ralph (kids games), Jean (kid games and nuts), Cindy (nuts and kids games), Cindi (photos), Patty (photos), Juanita (everything), John (kids games), Johnathan (kids games), Erika (everything), Jeremy (photos), Kristen (nuts), Dee (photos), Deb (photos and nuts), Janelle (everything), and the leads - Chris and Troy.
The weather here is colder than I expected from being in Harrisburg, and we are still dealing with the ice storm from last week. All the sidewalks and driving areas are covered with 1/2 of solid ice. We are not expected to be above freezing for a week. Plus we have 12+ inches snow on the ground.
Well to the photo above... This was sent to me from a person who would like to remain anonymous (none of the Elves!). I think it speaks for itself. I also want to Thank the person for the picture; as you can see it was not posed. You are very kind (double click on it to see what is written).
