Written by My father and I are big fans of The Christmas Story. It is a tradition for us to watch it as much as we can. What usually ends up happening is we watch the whole movie over a span of the 24 hours. 15 minutes here, 20 there… but they time Christmas is over, we’ve seen the entire thing.
Last year I got the chance to go to the actual house the movie was filmed in. The house is in a suburb of Cleveland. and still in the exact condition as it is in the movie. I got to see the bathroom Ralphy ate the soap in and decoded the secret Orphan Annie message, the kitchen the family shared dinner in, and even the living room with the leg lamp (Fra-gi-le… must be Italian).
This is one Christmas tradition that will never grow old.
Side note: Josh Groban’s Christmas album is the 9th most popular Christmas album of all-time. It came out last year!!! Go get em Josh! Grobanites for life…
