Around here each year, a couple of nights before Christmas, Santa rides down the street on a fire truck with sirens and all. Last night was his trip through our neighborhood and hubby ran and got his camera. The little kids all run out and get so excited. :)
I have recently found out that Santa does his little fire truck ride in other neighborhoods too. How about yours? Any fire truck rides from the old man with the white beard? ;)
Yep! We missed him this year but here's past years...

Our local fire department did it last year and they collected can food on the routes through neighborhoods. Not having any kids in school system, we didnt know about the food drive until after the fact.
We would of donated.
Yuppers, ;)
Sandy Klawz rides up to the Fire Station on one of the BRTs (Big Red Trucks)
on a Saturday morning and hangs around all morning while the Fire Guys serve breakfast to
the Kids and their parents. A sit on Sandy's Lap and a little Kid Gift are included.
Polaroid Pix "optional" at a buck.
We been doing a Sandy Klawz Breakfast for a lotta years.
And you KNOW you're older than dirt when This Year's Sandy Klawz is one of
the lil Fire KIDS who grew up in the Station 'cause Mom & Dad were both FireFighters.
<sigh>
No.. but there is a guy from here who's name is legally Santa Clause who is a nudist and lives at the resort, Sunny Rest Lodge. Kinda freaked me out when I worked there as a waitress and some guy named Santa and Mrs. Claus were my customers. Naked Santa and Mrs. Claus... on a golf cart no less. Will see if there are any pics of it...
Unfortunately no we don't:( I'd love to see it in person, looks very cool:D
Pam I'm so glad your husband has a new camera!!!
Not here, but they have a Santa Parade where my cousin lives, in Nahant, Mass. My cousin has a big party and invites everyone, as he lvies right ont he parade route; we went up on Saturday evening for it. When they started 20 years ago, the parade was about 5 mintues, he hee. This year, it was over 40 minutes!
Ours used to ride on the fire truck but he upgraded to this: http://picasaweb.google.com/pctrams/...22459396795922
They also have the Christmas Eve parade in Lynn. Which would be tonight but I won't get to see it this year. I've always wanted to go the the Nahant one. Beautiful town!Quote:
