    Hi everyone, things are going great but once again I have run out of lights and my wife has the car so I will have to pick up a couple more sets later on. I have anchored the tree and are positioning all of the ornamotors which is another insane task. I have to pick 50 spots around the tree, connect the ornamotors, and secure them to the nearest branch. In the process I am looking for dead bulbs and straightening out branches. My goal is to finish up by 5pm as I have another Christmas shore to go to this evening. I was there last week and they had lots of decorations that I like so I will be picking up some decorations.

    Tomorrow morning I will put the last two sets of lights in the tree and I will then be ready to start decorating

    After receiving complaints from the neighbors I decided not to cover up the front window while setting the tree but once I complete the tree it will not be plugged in until the end of November.

    I will post some picture later on today...

    Why would you get complaints from your neighbours about your Christmas tree?

    I'm guessing they are complaining that he has the window covered!

    I hope it's because they want to see the tree go up ...

    Or it’s a classy neighborhood and only gold-plated screens will do!

    They were mad last year because they could not see the tree being set up.

    I had several neighbors stop by today to have a look at the tree. I am about 42 hours into the tree set up I have started with the ornaments. I will be spending a good chunk of the weekend working on the tree. It is looking better than last year. Chantelle I really hope that you will be able to come by for a visit this year
