One year I was south of Halfmoon Bay, in Cali. and I collected 2 white plastic buckets, that I picked up off the beach, and filled it with all the plastic and rubber thongs, beer rings, MvD's styrafoam, Shell Oil empty containers, fishing nets, etc you get the picture. But when I came upon a tossed tensil tree that was it!
I took all the stuff and decorated the tree, took it to the county seat and left it decorated the in front. With a note Merry Plasticmas.
I can't think of one Christmas in my adult life where I paid cash for a dead tree. Seems so utterly rediculous, tradition aside. My parent bought them when i was a kid but hey it was the 50-60's and green like organic wasn't popular yet. I do remember my mom stopping the buying of dead trees. Still have a picture of the one tensil one they got with the rotating color light wheel.lol
Last few years I've decorated my truck with lights for the Keaau Christmas Lights parade, then drive around the side of my house with the lani and park it outside the livingroom window and pluh it in. I'll post a pic.
