We have several hundred smaller Doug fir trees growing on our place so we have never bought one. My wife manicures a few of them over the spring and summer during thier growth spurt so they have a nice conical shape by Dec. We usually give a few to friends each year. It is an amazing smell to have a fresh cut tree in the house.

4Choosing and Setting Up a Christmas Tree
by WTWizard inok, now it's getting closer to decision time.
now is the time for anyone that hasn't already decided on what kind of tree, and how to decorate it, to do so.. natural trees are popular.
they offer real scents, and they do not have to be stored.

I like saspirila (sp?) and birch beer much more then rootbeer. They are not as sweet and do not have an entire chemical warehouse for ingredients. You can make all of them at home for very little money and time and end up with a better tasting product then the commercial stuff.

My wife made my daughter's and her friend's costumes. It is 38 deg outside so they both had two layers on long underwear on.
Jessica as a garden fairy
And Miss Riley as a vampire princess
They just got back from trick or treating and scored a years supply of candy and had a great time.

Dog Owners -- Help!
by Inkie inwe have a four and a half month old chihuahua--the cutest little male dog.
in the short while that we have had him, my wife and i have fallen very much in love with him.
i haven't had a dog since i was a young lad of about 9 or 10 (i'm way older now) so i've long since forgotten how male dogs behave.

My mother in law had a goose with the same problem. I would not go over there unless she put "Huey the shoe raping" goose inside the barn.

Have you tried Thomas Kemper? It does not have PG in it and it tastes much better but cost's a bit more.

There is an A&W just a 1/2 mile from my office and they have great burgers but I prefer my rootbeer to be propylene glycol free.

My parents were also huge John Denver fans and up until now I was able to suppress the hideous memories. Sometimes plane crashes are a mixed blessing.
