GREENVILLE — As the holiday looms, children sometimes wonder if Santa Claus ever takes time off from his full-time occupation at the North Pole. Parents and grandparents are often asked what Santa does during the “off season” (other 364 days a year), when he is not feeding the reindeer or managing the elves at the magical toyshop. One answer (which I discovered recently) is that Santa Claus likes Texas, and spends a good deal of his time there, helping people discover the wonder of Christmas all year round.
