try this...

for a tree this year... cut a white pine from the woods, and feel the love around a charlie brown tree.

try it, you might benefit from it, break the mold, be different, it's real, and free, a hemlock is nice too, they're everywhere, good ones are where they cleared logging five to ten years ago, it's also free, bring the kids, have a pic-nic make a day of it, bring hot cocoa, google maps on your wireless communications device makes sure you don't get lost, and the weather channel app. monitors the weather, so you don't get stranded in bad weather. I did it when I was a kid, it was boss. try it, you might like it.
