Day Three Hundred Thirty 2012

Neil and I headed out to the local Christmas tree farm this afternoon, as we usually do the weekend after turkey day. The moon was rising and the sun was setting and the window for tree choosing was rapidly closing. So we set a new record and tagged the second tree that caught our attention before God turned out the lights. This white pine is the chosen one. It’s about nine feet tall. We like it. I think we work better with a deadline looming, so we may wait until sundown again this time next year to tree pick. (Lord willing, of course)

Nice looking tree! Did you get it at the usual place? Can't believe that a month from today is Christmas Day!

That's a fine looking tree. Do you guys go to Savage Tree Farm? I've heard rumors that it is going out of business.

Savage Christmas tree farm is still open for business--at least for this year. The white pines are getting really scarce. They still have the spruce and lots of frazier fir trees. I hope they keep it going for years to come. I'm not quite ready for a pre-lit tree :) It would probably be easier, though.
