Perhaps a sacrifice to stop the snow? (hail, sleet, etc.)

West Seattle photographer Eric Bell sent that shot with the following musings, including one similar to our headline:

After seeing this, I know without a shadow of doubt that Christmas is over, but then again … was Mama caught kissing Santa Claus and a jealous party caught ’em in the act? Or is this a futile attempt by persons unknown to hold back the chilly-weather gods? Maybe “Proudly Made in Oklahoma” was stamped on his butt. Whatever the reason for Santa’s demise, does he deserve to be dumped head first in an ill-fitting trash can? By the time I found him he was cold and there was no pulse.

We love sharing your pictures … send ’em to editor@westseattleblog.com

    It’s a sad economy indeed when even Santa resorts to “dumpster diving.”
