#12 - 12th Christmas Tree - 2023 - Deer

This fellow greeted me as I was to put my Bible on the entrance table at a Men's Room at our church.  He is one of our seasonal holiday time employees. 

From Monday's Houston Chronicle's;

Just the opposite of our daughter's experience with her cat, Dutch.  See my last Sunday's post,

#10- 10th Christmas Tree - 2023 - Front porch - Business

!! MERRY CHRISTMAS 2023 !! 

..

At the closed entrance porch of the restaurant where we ate yesterday had this tree.  We ate there because we had a BOGO Free coupon.  Saved use $17.95.  Mrs. Jim and I each had chicken-based entries, each a different variety.  

Incidentally, the restaurant was facing Interstate Hwy 10, near our home, and there the widest street in the nation.   

On the other front corner were these three blowup critters, two penguins and a reindeer.  The big birds are looking Christmassy with their scarves. 

You are seeing a conservatively decorated room but we both appreciated it.  Besides, makes for a post on the Christmas Tree blog for this year.

!! MERRY CHRISTMAS 2023 !!

#07 - 7th Christmas Tree - 2023 - Barrowed

Our friend, Chris has this tree and dog in her home.  She has another tree in another room, it is a rather unusual tree, that I can have posted here.  

Both are on her Facebook; I probably won't see them though as she lives on the other side of Houston. Most times it takes over an hour to go there, about 50 miles away. 

And here is the dog, closer up.

!! MERRY CHRISTMAS 2023 !!

# 06- 6th Christmas Tree - 2023 - Dutch

["Dutch", New cat in the family]

   

Not a tree today, just a story and a picture of a meanie cat.  We are talking about "Dutch".

Dutch is a Russian Blue cat that belongs to our younger daughter.  Last year she had to protect her Christmas tree from Dutch, as he wanted to disturb it.  

This year she though Dutch had better manners and would leave the tree alone.  He DID NOT.  Instead, he ate the foliage off five branches.  And had five piles of vomit.

The tree went away, back into its box and Dutch is in the 'Doghouse' for a long time.

!! MERRY CHRISTMAS 2023 !!

Zombie trees are dead trees that still stand.  Ready for action after midnight?  Watch for them / keep an eye on yours.

 

Becky is the keeper of the Square stuff.  March is Spiky Squares.  The picture has to be square.  Mine is 712 pixels square.  Becky's posts can be seen at the link above.
