No Winter Solstice/Heathen Christmas is complete without the celebratory chopping down of an evergreen. It is a noble and ancient tradition.
Urchins having a grand old time...
breaking stuff....
Scooby was in charge of selecting this year's species.
All aboard for the wagon ride to the fields!
Hmmmm....which one.......
Posing in front of The Chosen One.
Wresting the Chosen One from this Mortal Coil.
The Chosen One posing with Implement of Destruction.
Then, a frozen wagon-ride back to the farm, where The Chosen Ones are dropped into a very entertaining mechanical shaker, and then thrust into a baler, an enormous and very noisy machine one imagines will perform some astonishing feat, but instead just winds a little jute around your tree.
Waiting for hot dogs and hot chocolate by the fire...
We bloody love (Heathen) Christmas.
