The little tree that just couldn't.......

Well, our Christmas tree tried to hold on until after Christmas, but it was dropping needles like you would not believe.  As soon as I could, I started taking the ornaments and lights off it to get it out of the door.  There were not many needles left on it by the time I got all the decorations off.

The trash can was almost completely full of needles after I got them all off the floor

The rest of them pretty much came off as Sam dragged it out the front door and abandoned it in the yard

By the time it made it to the curb for recycling, it was bare apart from one small branch.....

This is the last year for a short needle tree, back to regular from now on.....
