O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum!

A field of Grand and Noble fir trees beckon us at the Westover Farm in Maple Valley. We bundlded up (including the dog, with two coats on) sinec it was a windy and cold day. We have never gotten a tree so early before. But since it was one we cut ourselves, it will last longer since it is fresher. The farm owner encouraged us to come early to we could have our choice of the best selection without the massive crowds that come later in December. Our tree is currently a "Christmas tree popsicle" in a bucket of frozen ice out on our back patio.
