2012 Christmas Tree Appears
SpinDizzy’s annual Christmas tree has once again appeared in the Rose Garden. As in years past, the newly-appeared tree is small and spindly with its base wrapped in a blue blanket, remniscent of the tree from A Charlie Brown Christmas. Like Charlie Brown’s tree, it will grow in grandeur and size as people decorate it. Everyone is encouraged to add a decoration of their own to the tree, by using the command trim, and describing the decoration that they’ve added. In this way the 2012 tree will join the trees of the past as a community treasure, the varied decorations with their meanings both public and private serving to remind us of the years that were when we visit the trees in their retirement park.
