FOR PEOPLE who live in or travel to Three Rivers, California in December, this sight is a yearly delight. Santa sits in this 1946 Chevy Cab-over and waves to all who pass by, wishing a warm and safe holiday season. The truck's care-taker is Pat O'Connell, a retired service station/towing business owner, an avid gardener, and a local treasure. For more than 40 years, his mechanical skills and good humor have helped countless drivers.
DO YOU have a "Pat" story? Post it here in the comments. I'll bet there's a million.
I once called Pat to tow my truck and when he asked where it was, I had to answer, "In my driveway." (I was trying to back my truck up uphill, and each time I tried, I inched forward instead, getting closer and closer to the edge, which dropped off. Pat to the rescue.)
