Here's a bit more of the Tannenbaum Farms.
Inside their main building, a gift shop where we got some doughnuts and hot chocolate. Before the pandemic they'd also have a Santa for photographs. I suppose they didn't have one this year since there wasn't a sign saying he was on break and would be back.

Trivia: In July 1863 John Henry Pepper arranged to have his Ghost Illusion used at the Theatre Chatelet in Paris, for the play ``Le Secret de Miss Aurore''. The producers paid him 20,000 francs for the secret of the partial-reflection technique. Source: Hiding the Elephant: How Magicians Invented the impossible and Learned to Disappear, Jim Steinmeyer.

Not sure which would be better for American life altogether: going a decade without the racists being involved in government, or going a decade without the anti-Communist paranoiacs being involved in government. I'd take either, mind you, but it's hard to guess what would make the bigger positive effect on the life of every single person in the world.
