Nothing's busting through that slip.

It's darn near bullet proof!

take 4 feet off the bottom of the tree

Just a little wider and it could have been the Griswold family Christmas tree…

Rich and ED beat me to it... take some off the bottom... the kids will never know.

As much sense as it would make, cutting some off the tree was a “non-starter” with the Boss. No ornaments yet, but at least the lights are done.

you have some smart kids. They know that accommodating awesome Christmas trees is the only practical reason for 17 ft ceilings.
BTW, whenever you need help painting or fixing a ceiling fan, I’ll be busy.

I hear ya Jeff, when we built this house we were much younger and the high ceilings at the time seemed cool. That was a long time ago!

Had family pictures today (rather be at the dentist), so I brought my B&S along in case my beard needed a good raking. Back home now relaxing, so I’ve got the owl handy. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Beautiful tree, Todd. I think the boss was right

I decided I’d wrap up a full month with this one before I switch it up for something else. But, if I start mid-month of a 30 day month, and end mid-month of a 31 day month… what is a full month?

Anyhow, this is day 30!

I’ll answer my own question! 30 days… yeah, 30 days is definitely a full month!

There were a lot of some very nice Northfield 12 Toothpicks yesterday in the STAG thread which encouraged me to carry mine today .

Went out today and cut the Christmas tree

Used the saw to trim a few branches

and reamed out some space for the spike in the base

This is what happens when you let your kids help pick out a tree when they know they won’t be home to help decorate it. Lesson learned! (That’s an 8’ step ladder)View attachment 1695598

My Lambsfoot and new 71 WILL be around to help if needed. View attachment 1695599

That happened to me one year but I was the guilty one that picked it out lol it was so wide I almost couldn’t get threw the front door and It was so tall it wanted to fall over and did once as I heard my girl friend screaming my name across the house as it crashed. So had to attach it to the ceiling with a hook and rope .To add insult to injury I forgot my razor sharp saw and had to use theirs when I cut it down. It was so dull it wouldn’t cut butter on a hot day and took me almost a hour to cut it down as I learned curse words I never knew existed.
Oh yes a lesson and Christmas I will never forget lol.
Thanks for sharing it brought back memories some good and some bad
