O’ Tannenbaum
Written in 1824 by Ernst Anschutz as a folk song heralding the fir tree’s evergreen qualities of constancy and faithfulness.
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
How lovely are your branches!
In beauty green will always grow
Through summer sun and winter snow.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How lovely are your branches!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
You are the tree most loved!
How often you give us delight
In brightly shining Christmas light!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
You are the tree most loved!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
Your beauty green will teach me
That hope and love will ever be
The way to joy and peace for me.
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
Your beauty green will teach me.

They are all amazing, but the first one with the pears and grapes gets my vote. I hope visitors are invited to eat the fruit!!!
Can you believe these decorations? Each year they are different, and they have a huge warehouse to store the ornaments. These weren’t real, but sure looked so.
No real? They certainly fooled me!
Thank you! I’ve had little to put me into the Christmas spirit this year, other than your wonderful photos.
Oh my ! We need to do something to fix that Jerry. 🙂 Believe me, plenty more to share from Wednesday’s adventure. Got a fun one for tomorrow.
GORGEOUS DISPLAYS!
