I Cut Down My Own Christmas Tree!!!!!!

So I am so stoked! Today I got to go cut my own christmas tree. It is something that I have seen in movies and have always thought would be a cool thing to do. My roommate Trent and I went out into the hills of Wilsonville to this tree farm. Since it was out in the boonies, we looked around to make sure that we weren't going to get shot by some hick, but it was actually quite legit. We set out on our quest for a Douglas Fir Christmas tree. (You may be wondering, why specifically douglas fir? Well we could get and size doug fir for 20 dollars) Here, I am going to throw some pictures in here to help tell the story.
So of course, I thought that it was only appropriate that I would go cut down a christmas tree in a plaid shirt and work boots. Here I am as we began to look for the perfect tree. Oh ya, that is the saw of death! (at least for our tree)
We first began to look at some smaller trees, more like 5 foot or maybe 6 foot... well, when you can get any height tree for the same price, and you have a competitive man with two saws, sometimes you go a little overboard.
We found the perfect tree, just under 9 footer! Though the only way to cut it down was to lay on the ground.
Here is Trent my roommate. He finished the cutting of the tree and then held both the blade and the tree in victory. Then it was time for me to prove my manhood.
Only one caption fits this picture... "Seasons Greetings"!
Finally, the highlander was put into action and the tree was taken to our lovely home. What a beautiful story right?!?! It will be even better if it actually snows this weekend! hope you all enjoy that little picture story
