Guess who's coming to town?

Those of you who catch my posts on fb know this, but this past weekend I finally went to visit my mother. That's always a bit of a challenge, but I'll leave that for another post.
I was heading home, north on route 29, when I had to stop at a traffic light. I happened to look up in the rearview mirror and noticed the couple in the car behind me. She had a short gray bob and was adjusting a red shawl around her shoulders. He was white haired, had a lovely long white beard, and wire rimmed glasses. They had red seat covers on the car seats which helped define their light hair and got me thinking.

When the light turned I pulled away and noticed their license plate in the mirror: SLEIGH

That confirmed it! The Clauses were on their way north after a bit of a summer vacation!

It was a bit of magic I needed.
Thanks, Santa!
