… to bring to an end the life of an innocent tree.
As we do every year, we loaded the family in the minivan last weekend and headed over to Critz Farms in Cazenovia to cut down our tree. The provision of a sharp saw and a round-trip tractor ride makes it feel a little like a canned hunt[1] but we always have a great time and the kids love picking out the tree. Head on over to the gallery to see photos from our excursion.
In other weekend news, Daniel took a shift ringing the Salvation Army bell at the local grocery store on Saturday. I was pleasantly surprised at how many people actually pitched in a few coins or bills. Big shout out to all the donors between noon and 1PM Saturday! You know who you are.
