Many time in life when you make a meaningful suggestion, people don't take you seriously. Other times when you suggest
something sarcastically, they take you too seriously. Such is the case with our 'Grinch' Christmas tree.
For the last 24 years, The Christmas season has not been much of an enjoyable experience for me. ( For a complete reason why refer to my very first Blog entry.) It was filled with long, cold and overworked day. So this year, things are going to be different.
When those of us who are staying the winter here at Heber Valley Camp decided to put up a Christmas Tree, they put me in charge of putting on the decorations--under their direction of course!! (They knowing that I have not had much experience in this sort of thing for the last 24 years)
After it was all done, it definitely looked like something an inexperienced tree trimmer would do, and a 'Grinch' would be proud of.
But thankfully, we decided to do a "Serious" tree also.
Once again, they put me in charge of placing the decoration-under their supervisor of course.
When all was said and done, it didn't turn out to bad.
After a little hot chocolate, and a warm bon fire
We turned on the lights
and had a 'Seriously' nice looking tree for all our winter campers to see and enjoy.
And I didn't think I would ever be able to say this at Christmas time, but it was Seriously a lot of fun.
