Thinking Christmas in August

The following was in a local newspaper.

Thinking Christmas in August

OLYMPIA, Wash.: You may be sweating bullets, but some people are already thinking Christmas. The official Christmas tree for the U.S. Capitol has been chosen.

It's from the Olympic National Forest in Washington state. Officials are keeping the tree's exact location secret until the giant evergreen is harvested in early November.

School kids from the state of Washington will also create more than 3,000 handmade ornaments to decorate the tree. :)

The White House has to pick out their tree early to allow time for Homeland Security to do the appropriate background checks. They can't just pick one up at Big Al Kyda's Christmas Tree Farm.

You guys are so funny but hey August is almost over. Were on the down side now baby. It's Christmas all the way. Woo Hoo! :D

[sheepsnot]

You got that right, sister! I am sitting here at work listening to the Carpenters sing Christ is Born. In my opinion, Karen Carpenter has one of the purest voices of all time.

Hey my mom was even talking about putting up her tree this morning. It's infectious now. Our Christmas party at work is already scheduled for December 10th. And away we go!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. Karen Carpenter is a great alto. I always liked her voice as well. I think I'll listen to some right now myself.

Still seem to far away, If we get right down to it for most of us Christmas events start the night of Thanksgiving. The Thanksgiving count down please...92 days/11 Hrs/48 Min/48 SEc. And right now as I'm talking to you I'm listening to live 365, while I was typing this I was so glad to hear... Merry Christmas, Mistletoe & Holly, & Some Children see him.
MERRY EARLY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

Hey Casseydbell,

Which Christmas Station do you like to listen to on Live365? I usually listen to Christmas Broadband because they play the classic stuff. I'm old fashioned when it comes to Christmas. I also subscribed to Music Match and Real Rhapsody so I can pretty much pick and choose what I want to listen too. I can listen at work too. :)

Christmas Radio.

I was listening to John Denver sing Aspenglow (Is that right?) and had to stop working. That is one awesome song. After that I picked up on some Bing and a touch of the 3 Stooges. I'm still a man, you know!

Thanks HolyNight! I just joined the forums, and hope to get very involved in this community. Glad you like the station!

Sheeps, I just saw your post about John Denver's Aspenglow....and now the song is stuck in my head. I love that whole album.

[sheepsnot]

Don't you mean to ask, "What's an album?" :D

I'm probably the last of my generation that knows what an LP is. Besides what rappers use to scratch with lol.
