Getting ready



We can't bear to cut trees down, but this one is alive, locally grown, and, as he has for the last three years, Joe bought it at the nearby country store. We're traditional '12 days of Christmas' followers so have a tree inside from Christmas til several days after New Year. Since the tree is living, we can't have it inside much longer than that, so it will wait, while the birds flutter around its branches outside the garage.

The last two trees are doing fine, planted soon after the holidays. Haven't decided where this one will go yet....


The new header photo is anticipation, not reality. It was actually taken last February. No snow here yet, although our neighbor Jim just spotted some flakes.....
