This is what a $1000.00 looks like

My daughter and her family went on a Christmas tree cutting outing. It started out well enough and then turned into an expensive adventure. This is her story of what happened.

This is what a $1000.00 tree looks like!


Journaling:

Yesterdays quest to cut a Christmas tree down turned out to be a bigger adventure than we thought it would be.

On the path to find our most perfect tree, we found a great place to stretch our legs, have a snowball fight, make snow angels, and watch the dog dig and frolic in the snow. It was a perfect start to our quest.

Once we had our fun in the snow, we continued up the mountain. However, instead of finding a perfect tree, we found a perfect spot to get our truck stuck in the snow. There was no one around to help, but it was a miracle that we had cell service and were able to call the forest ranger, who then called the sherif, who then called a tow truck to come get us. 4 hours later, we were tired, hungry, thirsty, and RESCUED! Thank the Lord for cell phones, GPS and His angels!

After all that, I was NOT going home without a tree! We found the most hopeless tree around us to love on to remind us to CUT NEXT YEARS TREE AT COSTCO!!!

Love your story! Expensive tree, but what a memory! Beautiful page and design!
 
Great story! It's good that you can be thankful for that expensive rescue. I'd hate to think how dangerous it could be if you couldn't get help out on the mountain.
 
Wow! A greater adventure than wanted but glad it turned out well. Such a beautiful page! At first glance it would not seem that this was the story that would unfold.
 
OMG!! You are so lucky to have been rescued!! Yes next year get your tree at Costco!! Can you imagine if you did not have cell service??? Well your page is stunning and you have a great story to tell about Christmas 2018!
 
Not sure what I like the mostyour story or your art. Both are perfectly captured.
 
OMG --- I would be right behind you at CostCo! As scary as it had to have been, this is what great memories are made of
 
I do love a good story and this is definitely one! One for the archives! Live and learn...and on to COSTCO for next year! Well done!
 
What did we do without cell phones! Wonderful documentation of your adventure and rescue! I vote on Costco next year too! Merry Christmas, Fran!
