This was a Halloween Day Outing with my Cousin. The people here are so very friendly and HELPFUL! I hadn't been on a Horse since my late 20's! They helped me feel at ease and SAFE! We did the 45 minute Trail through a Pasture, then through the woods were there were a few "creek" areas. There were a few up-hill, down-hill - which you have to learn how to lean to "help your horse". I was on "Doughnut" and he was a Sweetie and did all the work for me really! Once my initial "fear wore off I was able to relax and enjoy it! I can't wait to go back again in the Spring. I think they closed November 1 for the Season. Wonderful Experience! (There is only a Port-a-Potty here so go before you get there if you can - not a big deal really). All of the horses are so well cared for and Healthy and seem Happy to just ride the trail with all kinds of new people on them every day. I truly LOVED this experience! Extra Shout out to Chloe who went above and beyond to calm my fear.

We traveled to the Santa Claus Post Office from Florida to mail our Christmas cards. It’s a tiny little post office, but very important. We met a volunteer elf outside the post office as he was leaving for the day. He took our photo and told us that he and his fellow elves wrote responses to around 24,000 good little boys and girls around the world that had written to Santa at a cost of about $8000, all underwritten by donations. We were delighted to find our own card in our mailbox when we arrived home with a gorgeous Santa Claus postmark on it!! Thank you, Santa Claus Post Office!

The town of Santa Claus IN was a very unique and fun visit for our family. We spent about half a day visiting the Statue/Santa Claus Museum & Village, as well as the Christmas store, Kandy Kastle and loved driving around town looking for all the Santa Statues--there are over 20. It's an very easy town to get around. Of course you have to get your photo taken with the big statue. If you really want to have some fun--all dress as Santa, as our family of 14 did--as we cruised around town.
