Well last Sunday we went to Lotus and bought a 7 foot tree, new ornaments and 700 lights. Well we got it up and plugged it in 600 lights came on and we did not short out the house.
Had to get a new one as the old one was 6 years old and broke in half last year. As it was late when we got it up after the floods I just used 4 chopsticks and green duct tape to put it back together.
Anyway this years tree, anybody else putting one up or have it up yet. Now all we need is some cooler weather.
