There is a store in Hermitage, PA called Kraynak's. It is a huge nursery and for the holidays they not only have a tremendous amount of gorgeous decorations for the season but Christmas trees galore, both live and artificial. There is a section of the store that is a separate "room" that is nearly the length of the store and for holidays, spring or winter, there is an amazing display with an array of decorations from trees to lawn displays. Lights, action, details galore, it is a treat for any family or any person of any age. See a video of the display here:

In person that view is staggering to behold. Keeping this in mind, I used to have to BRIBE Tina to go to Kraynak's each year. Why? She is allergic to pine trees and she gets a bit sick just being there for an hour.

When Tina was nearly two-years old she got sick at Christmas for the second year in a row. Taking her to a specialist he asked if we had a "real" tree? I said, um, yeah... and he said that Tina was allergic to the pine sap. On returning home, we took down the tree and Steve's mom gave us her artificial tree to use in its place. Ever since I have had an artificial tree. I love to decorate a tree, set up a village, put up lights outside and put out a zillion decorations. This year I am looking for a fiber-optic tree large enough to decorate. My previous tree (the one I posted in my gallery recently) is bent and has always been bent . The cats get up inside it and cart off decorations. I had a set of "The Three Kings" I made with yarn and one of the cats adored one of the Kings. No matter where I put it he could get it. I finally gave up and let him have it. With a new kitten it will be difficult to decorate this year and keep him out of the decorations. Thought I would scale down the decorations this year and look for the fiber optic tree thinking it will be smaller than what I am used to and tighter, making it more difficult for the cats to crawl up inside. I really need to go to Kraynak's to see what they have. I won't have to bribe Tina to go this year since she won't be around. We haven't been to Kraynak's in years and I'm itching to go.

In case you're wondering, the "bribe" was letting her pick out a jigsaw puzzle!
