While I was at Walt Disney World, I received a special package from a wonderful Flickr Friend, "Rose Red Cottage". I saved the package to open on Christmas day and was thrilled to find a delightful hand-made card and a copy of this fun "Night Before Christmas (Texas Style) story.

 

This 1992 edition was written in 1950 by Leon A. Harris and was illustrated by Meg Wohlberg. Meg Wohlberg, who was best known for her illustrations of babies and small children, died at age 85 in 1990.

 

What a special treat! Thanks so much!

 

FYI, Pelican Press, Gretna, LA, offers an eclectic selection of books about the South, especially Louisiana and Texas. In 2003, Pelican published a superb book about the Saint Joseph Altar tradition in New Orleans. Some of the altars in the book are ones I saw and photographed as well!

I met Kevin, my Stranger #57, while he was working his second job as a parking attendant at the Santa's Wonderland Texas Christmas Village between Navasota, Texas and College Station, Texas. For info see: www.santas-wonderland.com/main.htm . Kevin's primary job is running a machine that does sreen printing for the largest company of it's kind in Texas. Kevin is originally from Waco, Texas but has relocated to the Bryan/College Station area. He was so kind and helpful and willing to be one of my Strangers... thanks so much, Kevin, for being my Stranger #57. Even with his reflective vest bleeding some reflective light, thankfully I was still was able to get this portrait capture.
