Who has or will have a real Christmas tree?

You can go to areas of the national forests here in Colorado and cut down your own tree for $14.

Geez Steve - 14 bucks? How much should I expect to spend round trip from WI to snag a tree? You got room to put up a fellow Mopar guy for the night? Lol

We usually go to a tree farm and cut one down. My son missed the last few Christmas's because he was in the Corps. When he got out a few months ago he said, "I'm picking the tree out and cutting it down myself." Looking forward to it.

there was an old farmer that planted Christmas trees after he retired from farming. Cut your own. We went there for 15 years. $10 for the whole time. And if no one was home, just leave the money in the shoe box.

Always a real tree

Always a real tree for us. Love the smell. The needles are a pain in the *** though....

My son is still petrified of spiders since the time we cut down a tree near my in-laws house about 2 hours away and drove home with it in the back of my Suburban. About an hour into the ride a bunch of spiders warmed up and woke up and were crawling all over my son in his car seat! Yikes!

Last sunday went out with my brother and his wife cut down a four foot tree
no kids at home so we go small
Had a smokie roast over a bonfire drank hot wine
We have never had a fake tree

Real one every year.

I have a great blue spruce in the front yard
perfect Christmas tree shape,
old photo it's better fuller & a couple feet taller now

I also have 5 cedars in the backyard fence line/dog run
that'd be suited for the job too

I don't cut them down, I like alive trees

I do occasionally decorate them too

we have a little like 3' traditional tree with all the lights etc.
that was my grammy & granddads decoration
we put out every year, same as it was a couple years ago

& thousands upon thousands of them, just out the back door

I do the full blown Christmas Trees & decorate the ones outside
when I know the kids & youngsters will be here
it's about every other year

this is the odd year, so not all the hoopla or decorations

 

[Brandy]

My little evergreens in the front yard got bigger and the lights that did four last year barely did three this year.

I like real trees , and did have those as Christmas trees. But a few years ago. I thought it would be a good idea to keep it simple. Just have a artificial tree . I didnt see the point of cutting down a real tree for a weeks worth of use. Watching it dry out for really no reason. Then tossing it. Seemed like a waste. Any ways. Thats just me.

You all have a Merry Christmas and be safe.
