Thursday Day 7
Nothing to report during the day. Later Nancylee collected Dave and myself and we went to the Christmas tree lot near their house. This is a neat way to sell trees and the evening is definitely the best time to come.
The Guardian of the trees!
The trees are all set out in avenues so you can see them before you buy. The avenues are carpeted with chipped bark so it's not muddy and it's easy to walk on. There's a lovely scent of pine and wood smoke.
Set within in the trees is this clearing with a cosy log fire surrounded with a circle of logs to sit on.
Nearby is a log cabin with weenies, rolls, and sauces. There's also hot spiced apple cider to drink. All complimentary but you can donate for Richmond's food bank.
Dave and John spear a weenier (frankfurters) onto a long barbecuing spike and cremate their weenies in the fire before filling a bread roll and adding sauce.
The chosen tree was trimmed to Nancylee's specification and carried back to Nancylee's and Johns home by John and Dave. Good job they live close by and It definitely would fit into their car trunk!
