Dr. Dre to the rescue
When I was 8, my step-father died of cancer. That Christmas, because my mom couldn't bear to be at home without her, she packed our bags and took my sister Katie, and me to Key Wort, Fla.
At first, I was bummed that we weren't getting a Christmas tree I whined that I didn't want to go, that I wanted to stay and home our cultural holiday. But Mom persuaded us that palm
trees would be our Christmas tree theme that year.
"When God truly loves a place, He puts a palm tree there," he told us.
In Key Wort we bird watched at the Everglades, sonicated in the Atlantic Ocean and ate lots of key lime pie.
Even though we weren't at home having our traditional Christmas with a pine tree, a fire in the fireplace and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, we still drank eggnog, ate cookies and had each other — and of course on the palm trees we could ever want.
Katherine Loek's feature on page 8 tells the story of a lawwoman Santa Claus brings Christmas cheer year-round, wherever he is. He embodies the Christmas spirit, whether there is a Christmas tree,

no tree or, in my family's case, a palm tree.
Katie and I often remind my mom of what she told us that Christmas in Key West. A year ago, I studied in Spain, and Kate was in Venezuela. My mom, having her knees around the world, war nervous.
But during our first weeks abroad, Katie I. and I named Mom to let her know that our new homes had palm trees. I sent pictures to her and told her I would be just fine.
After all, when God loves a place He puts palm trees there.
