Who knew that Californians don't care for Scotch Pine trees? After looking at the overpriced firs and a field full of scraggly Monterey Pines, I was bound and determined to get a Scotch Pine. Jerry and I drove to four or five lots before heading back home to do some internet research on local lots selling pines.

After finding a great place past Walnut Creek, we headed out the next day to get our Xmas tree. Jerry kept saying he didn't mind driving all over Kingdom Come, but I'm sure he was thinking, 'This better be some great tree!'

We arrive at the lot. It's one of those chop-down-yer-own places.
Ahh, finally a real Christmas tree lot. With pines!
Within ten minutes, I've found the perfect tree!
"I love you Mr. Tree!"
Here comes Jerry ready to chop down Mr. Tree
It's Paul Bunyan!
Jerry gets to work while I, uh, supervise heheh
"How YOU doin'?"
Jerry pretending he's Jack in "The Shining"
Hauling our booty out of the field.
Look how cute our tree is!
Now watch the magic of instant wrapping!
That's the coolest thing I've ever seen
They also level the stump for ya. No charge.
