Am I dreaming?

As the song suggests, I do dream of white Christmases.  Something about Christmas with no snow on the ground just doesn't seem right to me.  Maybe it's from my time growing up in Washington and Oregon and pretty much always having snow for Christmas.  This year we got lucky, we had a good snow storm on Christmas Eve leaving a nice cold 4" blanket over everything.

I think Santa appreciates it too.  It must be tough to try to take off and land a sleigh meant for snow where there is none.  Oh sure, he can just use magic but it's not like magic grows on trees.  I have heard rumor of a possible magic shortage in coming years.  The world's population continues to increase, more and more people believe in Santa all of which interprets to more magic.  More magic to keep track of the naughty children, more magic to prepare the presents and more magic to deliver them.  It's a vicious cycle.

If you love Santa you should give some serious this issue, and if you don't live somewhere it will snow for Christmas you should really give some thought to doing exactly that.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a better night's sleep than last night.
