Wow, what time are YOU serving? It's going to be a busy night -- first to Germany for dinner with Chrissi, then to Colorado for dinner at your house. I'd better catch a ride with Santa!

I read somewhere that Santa travels in a space-time continuum. This is the only way he can manage to visit every house in the world in just one night. So he can easily get you from Minnesota to Germany in less than a blink of the eye. And then on to Colorado once you've sampled Chrissi's Castle's Secret, desert and a few engaging conversations. But if you're planning to do all these things in just one night, Santa is probably your only hope of success. The problem is seeing Santa when he's flying that fast. I'll email the North Pole for you Katherine and I'll ask Santa to slow his sled down as he approaches the greater Minneapolis airspace. ;)

Heck, I'll just go meet him as he's taking off. It's practically walking distance from here.

We were watching tv the other night, these kids were under the tree Christmas morning, and a steam trainset circled the tree--classic Baldwin pulled with smoke and the big gauge 3-rail layout (forgot what it is called). I told Steve I could smell the track and smoke. Memories for sure.
