Well this year looks like there will be a change. My wife loves Christmas to the point you can occasionally Christmas carols around here in July. The tree, that has stood (literally) the test of time over the years is getting new lights. So while most folks are putting up their trees, we will be undecorating ours. Of course once the lights are replaced it will resume it's year 'round role in the corner of the living room. It's a skinny one so it does not take up a lot of space.

I prefer to leave it up all year, leaves more room in the closet for guitars. :whistling:

I do like threads such as this to look at others trees. Almost as fun as looking at guitars.
We have a place to store ours but now, with the new house, I won't have to tear it down. We will pull the decorations though because putting them on is a big part of the fun for us. To facilitate not taking it down but storing it we bought a furniture dolly and I mounted the tree to it.

Wouldn't it be funny if Slash were to admit that he started wearing his hat because of Frosty... but NOT because he wanted to be Frosty, but instead he wanted to be the evil magician Professor Hinkle!!!

You may have "uncovered" a hidden truth. I mean he is that wonderful evil magician on a Les Paul.:p

Finally got a shot of our neighborhood lights and my simple addition of the icicle lights on our balcony. Our HOA had lost their lights for the last 2 years ... the light company bailed and took em. These look new, so I assume they just bought new lights.

I dread Christmas Day coming. Every year my mother-in-law comes for dinner, and stays til about 8pm. Sits and eats dinner, doesn't offer to help clear the plates or wash up, talks non stop about things I haven't the slightest interest in, and is generally annoying.
Boxing Day is bliss. 🤣
You realize your wife will eventually turn into your mother in law don't you?

We just started putting stuff up on Wednesday while my grandkids were here. My wife left Friday for 2 weeks in Central America, so the rest of the decorating is on hold. Bought a new artificial tree - my last one got ruined in the flood last year. Went with a 9-footer with built in lights. 15 minutes setup versus the 2 hours previously stringing the lights up........worth the extra money.
