Whew...During the tree season, there is no rest for the wicked or the weary which means that I am doubly tired. In fact, I had to crack open my spare tin of coffee to ensure that I had enough caffeine to keep me plugging along. All in all it was a great season...The trees looked good and we had a lot of new business. I guess the current economy has made people step back to a more traditional Christmas celebration.
The Cold Wind Doth BlowIn an earlier post, I made reference to the winds that hit the tree shed (no not the broken winds that happen inside the shed) but the cold North winds. True to form, Mother Nature sent an Arctic blast down on us and I cannot remember when I was ever so cold. My finger were numb and the skin actually cracked on the tips. It made tying the trees on the vehicles even more challenging.
