Mall Santa

I went to the mall to finish up my Christmas shopping and to meet a friend to exchange gifts--she had gifts for me to take to my family this weekend, too.  I don't go to this mall( West Farms Mall) very often ( or any mall really!)--I worked at JCPenney in this mall for 8 years--from before it opened ( help set up the store) in 1974 til I got a promotion  & went to work in Enfield, CT ( that store is closed now!)

 They have beautiful decorations around the mall--this is in the center court--no line yet for Santa, so he's relaxing a bit!

 I think he's chillin" --getting ready for the onslaught!  Maybe not too bad because it's during the week! Ho, Ho , Ho!
