The Tree Meets its Match!

Saturday, November 20, 2010 - The 2010 U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree finally met its match when we visited the Jolly Green Giant in Blue Earth, MN. The Giant stands at 55 feet tall, 12 feet shorter than the Tree. The Tree arrived just in time for the annual "scarfing," when the Giant received a giant red scarf to keep warm for the winter.

Prior to the festivities in Blue Earth, the Tree visited the J & L Harley Davidson in Sioux Falls where many people came to see the Tree. Despite repeated requests from Team Tree, no free Harley's were given away.

Thanks to J & R Harley Davidson for having us!

On the way from Sioux Falls to Blue Earth, we had to make a brief roadside stop when a small part of our banner began to tear. Never fear, we had duct tape and Team Tree!
