Beautiful trees OM and AP,Like the rag garland I have an Aunt who lives in East Falmouth out on the Cape,she would dye hers dark green then she would intertwine a string of cranberries and popcorn and for a final touch she would add pine cones and little red bows.

'I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future!' Scrooge repeated, as he scrambled out of bed. 'The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. Oh, Jacob Marley! Heaven, and the Christmas Time be praised for this! I say it on my knees, old Jacob, on my knees!' (Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol)
