If I had known this was the Christmas tree board I would have offered my old tree here. Just WAY too big for our new house. Originally 10' tall(now 9') it is 8' in diameter at the base and has about 2500 lights on it. Originally cost $500 20 years ago. Couldn't sell it at the yard sale so my wife is donating it to the Easter Seal camp here. Really hate to give up that tree
