The North Pole

I felt that this subject needed it's own blog. Everyone knows that we went north past the Arctic Circle, but I didn't mention that we had stopped at a small place called the North Pole. This was a busy little town, even in the summer. We went inside of this magical place that had Christmas Trees all lit up, and toys on shelves, and Christmas songs being played. What a beautiful place!

We spoke to one fellow (he didn't introduce himself) who had a big white beard. He seemed to know us, though, and talked to us about our family! He knew all our grandchildren, and said that he would especially remember them this December. I'm not sure what he meant, but he did say that he knew that most of my wonderful grandchildren were being good by helping their mothers this year, and was hoping that the others would do the same for the rest of the year.

It was a surprising stop, and I thought it was worth passing on.
