Driving to the West End for the Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast Saturday morning, I saw the City-County Building (architect named Henry Hornbostel) tree being put into place. A large flatbed truck now empty and a forestry truck with a cherry-picker bucket and a huge gold crane-like machine were all at the curb. I parked and got out of the car to photograph the scene. My friend R remarked that the pumpkins are still out! You can see the head of the Richard S Caliguiri Monument. Second image below of monument.

Every year, Christmas seems to come earlier. Soon tree ornaments will be sold alongside Fourth of July paper plates at the CVS.
My favorite radio station starts playing all XMas music on 11/19/10…gee, Id like to have my T’giving bird before its XMas!!
I wonder what Mr.Caliguiri was thinking. That is one big tree!
my tree is 3 feet tall from Big Lots
What a beautiful tree … Blue Spruce? (not sure….but it seeems to have a blue cast) I hope I get to see it while it’s still a Holiday Tree: once the lights and ornaments are added: Christmas Tree ….. 🙂 Thanks for letting me know it’s there!!!
A beautiful tree
That is a big tree coming too early for me to even think of Christmas.
