Picking out a Tree

Yesterday I went with my son and his in-laws to pick out a Christmas tree. I must admit that I have never been to a tree farm as organized as the one we went to yesterday. They have Christmas tree farming and sales down to a science.

Jericho's dad, Mike, wanted a ten foot tree.  They had sticks measured off that were ten feet tall.

There were thousands of trees.  Here is Kevin wondering through the maze.

Here is a shot of Kevin, Jericho, Mike, and Mike's girlfriend, Jennifer, next to the tree they selected.

The tree farm had a shaker to shake out all the loose needles.

They then baled it for the ride home on top of the car.
