First discarded Christmas tree of the season

Well! Two weeks before Christmas and ... Wait. What? Shit. Four days before Christmas and we already have a tree that someone has dragged (presumably) to the corner... in this case, First Avenue at East 12th Street...


Perhaps someone decided that they no longer liked the tree... or, more likely, someone will be away during the holidays and didn't want to return to a deader tree in a few weeks. Or there's another logical explanation...

    Maybe it's a Chanukah tree...

    That tree is in good shape. Someone should go snap it up. Why not?

    @ Marty

    Damn! Was hoping that I wouldn't get busted for that!

    And it is in great shape, really. I would have picked it up, but Mrs. Grieve would have let me have it if I came home with one more stray...

    Wow. How did they keep it green for so long? For sure that's got to be the winner of the latest tree on the street.
