Man vs Tree

Felling a tree-- a time old Christmas tradition.  Well, this year Tommy decided to channel his inner Griswold.  In his sights: a 15' Fraser Fir and thousands of lights...

Granted, said Fraser Fir was a little bit thin on the bottom. ("We'll just face that side to the corner...")  It seems that Hudson Valley deer have an insatiable appetite for the best Christmas Trees. Combined with the fact that there's absolutely no place in the ranch for a 15' tree, Dr. C decided to take the good tree-grower's advice and "cut high."  

Boom! Christmas tree down.  No victory is too small to celebrate...

Merry Christmas!!
