At least it's not a REAL tree !!!!!
More power to him! I usually put my tree up the week after Thanksgiving -- but may just do it the week before, now that I've looked at the calendar. It is going to be a short season this year; in fact, Thanksgiving is as late as it can possibly be. And he's right -- without that extra cushion of November before we enter December, it will be a whirlwind as soon as Thanksgiving is over. On the bright side -- it won't seem like we have as long to wait to open our SS packages!
