I know we cant be the only ones....
barely had time to put the aluminum one up, nevermind a real one this year..
..but when we do get a real one, when it comes down, I usually truck it out to a certain pond/lake I have here near me and sink it to the bottom with a cinderblock, so it becomes cover for little baitfish and the larger ones that prey on them..
Good Fishin!

i gave up sampleing buds for lent, what did yall give up , my tradition is to take tree in the stand and all with the lights still on , everything else gone, use as yard art, lights up nice in the dark and can have a bench or something there, hint, use a green extension cord to blend in with the grass, they look even better when all the needles fall off, this is the first in 6 years i havent kept it till the next christmas outside as art, and light, i always buy new lights , i hate untangleing those bitches

bout 15 yr ago I had a brainstorm of an idea to get some laughs, yup screwing w/strangers just might be bad karma but I'm a practical joker at heart and I figured all I was costing anybody was some time & effort.
I took out an ad in two local newspapers claiming that I would buy any & all old christmas trees for $10 each when brought to the local IGA parking lot on January 6th @ 11am. I guess a few folks went out collecting trees from various front yards cause several pickup trucks were just loaded to the gills w/the tinsel festooned suckers, I drove by & through the lot a few times and the crowd kept growing I even spotted several of my own friends in the crowd likely hoping to score enough cash for a sack, as I recall I went home & stoked the woodstove and caught a buzz & wondered what they were all doing now.
I got a good chuckle, and hey if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is. I'll bet I got a few trees removed from their dens/livingrooms on time for a change too.......
