Ho!Ho!Ho! Santa Visits Useppa - Thoughts and Pictures by UseppaGin - T’was the middle of the afternoon when Santa arrived on the island. He left the reindeer on Pine Island. He needed his yearly visit to Useppa to see his young friends and ride the Fire Truck. Sleighs are okay for an overnight job of delivering presents around the world, but a chance to sit on the beach for a bit… it’s just the break Santa needs. Thank you to the Useppa Fire Department, Chief Maria and Chief Chris for making it happen.
