The Land of Christmas Trees!

Pretty Fall Colors

Christmas trees all the way up the mountain

Beautiful Christmas Trees

I think 90% of all Christmas trees must come from North Caroline.  It seems like that any ways.  Tree farms are EVERY WHERE up there.  Fields and fields of them.  There was one right behind Misty Ridge where we were staying.  One of our days, Melanie and I walked up the road to check out the tree farm.  It made you want to cut one and take it home with you.  We noticed that some of the trees were tagged.  You know, with those little different colored plastic ribbons you see on the trees at the stores and lots. I never knew that the farms actually tag them before they are cut.  We ran into Frank, one of the care takers to the farm.  They were bush hogging between the rows of trees and weed eating around each tree.  They were getting ready to cut them and ship them off to the world.  What a nice walk we had that day, with the smell of Christmas trees all the way.
