Tales of Santa Claus, part 2

As I mentioned, I have been fortunate to make Santa's acquaintance, and through some of these visits, I have learned some things that people probably aren't aware of.

One such thing is the actual number of locations that Santa spends his time at. He has a place at the North Pole, but he also has a place in North Pole, Alaska (just outside of Fairbanks), and North Pole, Colorado (not far from Pike's Peak).

North Pole, Alaska is where Santa stops during his trek around the world in order to let the reindeer refuel. Since he covers so much ground in such a short period of time, those reindeer burn off a lot of calories. In order for them to stay strong enough for the full trip, Santa stops in North Pole, Alaska, where highly trained elves cultivate fields of flying reindeer food. Most of these fields are hidden by the plentiful forests, but every once in a while, if you cruise down Richardson Highway, you can sneak a peek of the flying reindeer food fields.

In the last few years, word has gone out about the health of the reindeer, and places have started selling magic reindeer food. Most of these are good quality reindeer snacks, but there have also been cases of bogus reindeer food. Of course, carrots are good for the deer, too.

More to come...?
