The argument for fake Christmas trees
Today on radio Glenn talks about his trip to go buy a Christmas tree this weekend. As long as you aren't living in some bizarre world where needles and tree sap is your idea of a good time, this was probably your weekend. Freezing your butt off, pathetically attempting to saw down a tree, getting covered in sap, and then getting yelled at as the tree (no matter how it is positioned) never looks good enough. This one is for all of you men out there who long for owning a fake Christmas tree. Ref. Source 6
I love the old classic aluminum Christmas Trees. I was fortunate enough to score a 1965 7' Aluminum Christmas Tree with rotating base (plays Jingle Bells and White Christmas) and color light wheel. I have Blue, Red or Hunter Green glass ornaments to decorate it with...we switch yearly.
Vincenzo, 1965? And the tree is actually around and working fine? Wow, it must be a really good tree. I love gigantic Christmas trees and I hope to have one someday. Right now, we have a very, very tiny one at our apartment with two different sets of lights.
I like the use of a artificial tree as I do not have to go out and buy a fire hazard yearly. I like the fact that I have three different trees now. I have a 7' green spruce type, a 6' white fir and a 6' purple tree. We use different lights on each one year after year after we decide which one to set up.
