Christmas tree hunting

Went to cut down a tree today, with my b and bro and ma. We drove the family van out to Pine Falls, all bundled and bickering and eating nuts the whole way. The sun was low low, because it is getting dark so very early these days before Christmas. I chopped a little lovely down, trying to pick one in a tight jam so that the space it left would fill with other trees. It was cold as anything today, cold like it is all winter, but hasn't been just yet. It was great fun, and on the way home, the four of us were all jammed in the van with two trees, branchs in our mouths and passing peppermint tea around. It was lovely.
