Larry Lewis and his wife Christine have a new look to their front yard.
That's what happens when you remove a 32-foot evergreen tree from the mix.
The Lewis family decided to donate the tree to the city to use as its holiday tree on Mays Island. The Colorado Blue Spruce was cut down in the Lewis yard this morning and had a police escort as it rolled down 16th Avenue SW.
This is a Christmas tree. I say a holiday tree is a deciduous tree with white lights and yellow ribbons draped over its branches.

I saw this after seeing about the flooding on TV for the last week or so. I suddenly saw Cedar Rapids in the title so I watched. I feel for you people. You will make it!!!

What does it matter if someone calls it a Christmas tree or a Holiday tree? They are just names!

Probably the nicest CHRISTMAS tree I've seen in awhile. Everyone knows Holiday trees are not pc. :D That's my opinion only, film at eleven.:P
