So after last years horrible winter we finally received a bunch of snow before the holidays so I thought, this would be a great time to visit Santa street.
Let me explain a bit. There is a street in town where a bunch of home owners, maybe around 50, put large inflatable Santa Claus' on their front yard. It has become a little tourist attraction. (...)
