Putting Up the Tree

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.

Wish I knew the measurements!

  1. Every year, Christmas seems to come earlier. Soon tree ornaments will be sold alongside Fourth of July paper plates at the CVS.

  2. 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!!!
