colorado tree cutting

This is one of those times that I tell you how I have lived in Denver for almost 10 years and have just experienced the gift of Christmas tree cutting in Colorado. If you’re into real trees then this is the way to go. On top of the story you have to tell your friends, (that didn’t attend) it’s a fun time. This year I went with a group of friends that understood, like I did, we needed to nourish ourselves with plenty of food, whisky, and wine. It was real cold out there. Successfully we all came back completely satisfied with our charlie brown creations. At my request the following images are the trees as their final glory. { some individuals in the group opted to not share their creativity, but yet the surroundings } Happy Holidays!
