I moved back to Forest Park after living in Hawaii for twelve years. I came back to help
take care of Nannie, Elizabeth Reid, in the family home until she passed a year later.
I lived there until the family decided to sell the house in 2005. I moved to Colorado and the house was sold in 2006. You must be wondering, "What does this have to do with Santa".
Santa moved in with Jay and his wife, Kay. In 2008, I moved back to Georgia, this time to
Stockbridge. In 2011 my mother passed and left me her home at Eagles Landing. Memories
of my childhood came flooding back. Mama, Daddy, and Jay and our time at the North Avenue
house in Forest Park kept coming back. There are things around me from that time like Nannies cedar
chest, my mothers comb, Daddy's ladle that he used to drink from the river at our cabin in North Georgia.
When the holidays rolled around this year, all I could think about was the one thing that brought joy, not only to my family, but to everyone who shared our holiday tradition. It's time for you to meet
him...
Here's my guest...
But first, a pit stop...
STAY TUNED.
