Whacking the tree.....







We went on the traditional Christmas tree hunt the day after Thanksgiving. The usual gang was on hand for the fun and tree day activities.

First up, find a tree and cut 'er down. Handsaws only, the effort is shared by all the guys. We kept the top 15 feet or so for our tree, and toted it home with all the boughs and the trunk.

Next activity, lunch! This year, because it was so cold, we had a big old pot of chili. Steve's new stove did a great job of heating it up.

Other fun.....taking the annual Christmas photo and climbing on the rocks.
