Real. Every year, my partner and I and other partners or friends are welcome to join us, go out into the forests and legally cut down a tree.
It’s a pain in the ass, it’s adventure, it’s a party, it’s fun. It’s also way cheaper than just buying one. I think we paid like $13 for the state park purpose licence this past weekend.
I have a tradition I made up for this, too. Every year, I cut a puck off the bottom of the tree before I put it in the stand. I drill a hole through it, label it with the year with a marker, and hang it from the tree. I think this will be our 7th year? It hasn’t been decorated yet because our living room is super small and a disaster and the tree is currently in the kitchen.
I find that the challenge gives purpose to time, and gives us excuse to socialize more in these dark months.
