I always feel so sad for the old trees. When I was little I would cry when we got rid of them.

How sad! I hate seeing them being tossed. :(

Lauren Hartman said...

Yep, it surely is :) I'm already wishing for spring!

Amy said...

That poor tree, it looks so sad being a castoff... :)

So sad. You won't see that in the country side where I live. TFS!

Sharon said...

LOL! I forgot about that. We have few live trees down here b/c they are SO expensive and they don't last.

Kelly said...

I'm with Cari--I feel sad for those poor trees, too. They had such a brief moment of glory...

So true! It is kind of a sad sight, but makes a nice picture!

Steph said...

LOL! Once I was driving to take out tree to the drop spot and when I got there it wasn't in the back of my truck, it had flown out on the way into town. It still makes me laugh.

Great pics!

we always have a fake tree, I always vow that "next year, I'll have a real tree" and I never do - this makes me feel a little bit better for not getting a real one! ;-P

I actually hate that, but it's a good symbol of the new year. I just feel for all the trees, although I know a majority of them were grown for that purpose.

Becky said...

In my case, you would see that on my front lawn. :-D

Liz said...

The nature lover in me shudders to see this... and the cleaning lady in me rejoices. Hmmmm I might have issues. :)

So true. I hope they recycle them.

Unknown said...

Poor trees. Great capture.

Tori said...

LOL! I saw a truck full of them being carted off to be recycled yesterday morning.
