...I've seen an aluminum tree since the 60's-ish? Maybe I knew someone who still had one in the very early 70's, but can't remember.

The first Christmas tree that we had, after we married, was a potted Cypress tree, lol! It was planted somewhere later, but I don't recall where, maybe at Dfil's house.

I like the idea of a photo of you and Charlie. Maybe Ds can take it with his phone, then send it to you! You guys can sit outside for it!
