Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 176 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 176 | And bought us a REAL Christmas tree! A California Redwood! Gonna have the biggest tree in the neighborhood in about 40 years....  It's actually alive in the container right now. After Christmas we will plant it outside next to the other three former Christmas trees. We got some of those first three trees when my sons were young. Now one of them must be over 40 feet tall. Think about getting a living tree for Christmas this year. And, of course, bring it home in your truck! 
Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.

We live up here, where many purchase permits to chop down their Christmas tree's. I've been thinking about cutting down a tree this year, but my truck isn't finished. Guess I'll have to get out last years real tree from the box in the basement. The idea of planting the tree after Christmas would be great.

We have some 50 and 60 feet tall.
In the last couple years we've had a couple major trees fall, and I worry one might fall on one of my trucks. Why not cut one down instead?
But no, we'll drive 10 miles and pay $50 for a tree someone else cut. At least I'll be able to carry it home in a Stovebolt...
