| Description: |
When I was small, in preschool, I can remember thinking that Santa Claus must have come, because I could see these sleigh tracks. Well, the reason I saw the sleigh tracks was because the Navajos at that point in time in the wintertime, the snow got deep enough, they put the runners on their wagons. So in fact I could go out there and I could see these sleigh tracks, and I knew (laughter) that he'd been there. But as I say, this was preschool.
