Will The Christmas Tree Fit?Переглядів: 261

|
Getting our live Christmas treeПереглядів: 366The Whitecroft "tradition" of having a live, rooted tree took us to the southern part of Gloucestershire, near the Severn, where this tree farmer dug up a gorgeous Norfolk pine for us. He needed his tractor to load it in our rental truck.

Wellingtonia, Laurels, and Here Comes the Big TreeПереглядів: 431We bought a potted Wellingtonia for the front lounge, some laurels for a new hedge, and Marjorie is in the truck trying to guide the large Christmas tree.

Trying to Fit The Tree Into The TruckПереглядів: 379For some reason -- lost on me -- the farmer wanted to put the large tree in the side, sliding door on the van rather than the larger back door.

Yes the trees fit -- barely!Переглядів: 556The potted Wellingtonia, Norfolk Pine Christmas tree, and the laurels fit in the back of the truck.

The Whitecroft TrackПереглядів: 411Looking south down the Whitecroft track (December 2007). The new fence is starting to weather a little, and we are about to plant laurels for a hedge.

Moving the Christmas Tree to our TruckПереглядів: 412We'd rented a panel van from Hertz, and Marjorie, Tapa, and I headed down to Gloucestershire to pick up the tree.

Wisteria VineПереглядів: 437Northern wall of Whitecroft. I suspect we should have planted it on a southern wall. It took a long time to start blooming, but now when it's spring and early summer, it's gorgeous.
