Christmas- and your trees

[Bill]

Merry Christmas from Montana to all my friends in Texas I’ve met, and those who I hope to meet one day!

Let’s see your Christmas trees as they get decorated.

I’ll start- after seeing how expensive they are on lots, one benefit of living in Montana is the huge amount of public land. For $5 we got a BLM permit and during elk season found an area with nice trees. Due to the snow and drifts we took the Pioneer 500 (and the yellow lab), cut down an 11 footer, put it on a piece of Tyvek, tied on a rope and slid it back over the snow 3 miles to the trailer. Our house is on the other side of the valley.

Here’s the ‘before’. After picture to follow.

That's awesome Bill. I have mine up but waiting on the kids to decorate it. Have lights on it though.

My wife does two for the plant I work for. She makes just about everything herself. She made that fake fire place with special fire fan/light.



My daughter did her first tree at her house and even her first buck got decorated.

We will decorate ours tomorrow, Mama decided she wants a new “theme”, so we will go shopping for some new ornament packages and then decorate as a family tomorrow evening

Great! Keep ‘em coming.

When I was cutting down the tree about 100 yards from the “road” I was parked, 2 families getting trees stopped their pickups and were looking in my direction. Probably saying to themselves, “how’s that guy with a camo jacket and a pistol holster on his chest going to get a tree out of here?

Nice trees folks!
