I took the tree out to my fire pit by the river yesterday and had a nice little fire.
Today is its last. We are getting all spiffed up, and Taking our last picture in front of the Monster. It is a 12' Fake Tree, on a 2-Foot Box.
Future Trees will be no more than a Foot or Two high.
The Monster had to be decorated from the Mezzanine Level, and with a 12-Foot Ladder as well. Done with that Foolishness!
Still wasn't big enough to display even a Majority of SWMBO's Ornaments!
Otherwise, we are undecorating the inside of the house today.
If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!

Nope ... wife put it up, wife takes it down at her leisure....maybe not for a few more weeks?

Same here.
My wife has left it up until my birthday...
And when I 'did' ever ask her if she wanted some help getting it down,
I was staunchly told, "Don't you EVEN think about it."
She loves a CHRISTmas tree. And if it were up to her, she'd have a CHRISTmas "room" all year 'round.

Woops, it's 2 degrees out now.
[:(]
Outside decorations on the house too.

Talk about creosote... Are you going to have your chimney swept after you're done burning it?
My wife died in 1998, the last tree I had up in my house was 1997
Taking down Christmas decorations always makes melancholy, but this is just depressing. [:(]
We had more than a few calls on em. Even had a SOP on 'em
1n the 60's we'd burn all the ones thrown out at the skate pond
PHOOOFF- 20-30 ft flames
I even braved the arctic conditions we are having here in East Texas and took down the outside decorations; it was a frigid 31 degrees while I was outside! [:I] However, it was 19 degrees earlier this morning! [:0]

Wife took everything off the tree yesterday. I haven't had the heart to drag it out of the house yet so it's still standing, pretty as ever, hate that it will go out into the woods to rot away.
It would not rot away, if it had not been cut down in the first place.
