That's great and I'm quite serious. Every Christmas I bought a live Christmas tree and planted it. When I sold the house most of those trees were taller than the house. My kids did throw a fit when I brought home a plum tree for Christmas. "Hey, it's a tree, it's Christmas, help me decorate." It was one stick that forked. I hung tinsel and two balls while the kids gave me hell. Then I got the farm-grown tree from behind the garage to decorate for Christmas.

I do undertand that for many people, stopping someone from cutting down a tree is much more fun that planting trees. Oh, the power of forcing people to yield and obey is so seductive. Sure beats getting your hands dirty planting trees.
