For some, Christmas is less a season than it is a state of mind.
You know who you are.
Your toes tingle at the sight of tinsel.
For you, Boxing Day, on Dec. 26, is a day of mourning.
If only there were places where it never ended.
Happily, there are!
Here are six of them.
Santa Claus, Ind.
Everyone wanted that precious postmark on their cards and packages.
America being what it is, the moneymakers then stepped in.
A lawyer from nearby Vincennes set up a souvenir shop for the decorative sleighs he made.
Toy manufacturers and a candymaker moved into what was dubbed Santas Candy Castle.
Outside the park, there is a Santa Claus Museum, a winery and a year-round Christmas store.
Theres even a Christmas Lake Village residential area where all the streets have holiday-related names.
Santa is in residence year-round, of course.
Apparently not, as this town outside Fairbanks has come to know.
Alas, those dreams never materialized.
