The Rocks Estate

It's that time of year again. Where everyone is hurrying out in down coats with toe warmers in their boots, and Lon is doing snow shoveling in his T-shirt, declaring that he is comfortable. So, of course, it is also the time for our 'Holiday Magic' package, including everything from lodging to cutting your own Christmas tree at the Rocks Estate Christmas Tree Farm. Taking it right from their website (www.therocks.org)...

"You can select a freshly cut tree or enjoy the experience of harvesting your own in our scenic fields. We can help you cut the tree or leave it up to you. Once chosen, your tree is transported to the tree baler where we wrap and then tie your tree onto your vehicle free of charge. The local booster club supplies the food and you can warm up around the marshmallow pit while singing Christmas carols."
It is loads of fun, and their trees range in size from tiny little counter-top trees to the huge, but perfectly rounded, 15+ footers. We would use a 20 footer in our house.
So, tell us, how big are your Christmas trees? Or maybe a tradition you do every year. Either way, tell us something about YOUR holiday season, whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or something else. We want to know about you!
