After preview this past Friday, I went up to Fashion Island to see if they started putting the Christmas tree up yet. I wanted to see the process as it is such a big tree. If I remember correctly, it is one of the tallest in the nation. My instinct was right, they were in the middle of putting up the tree. I have been curious to see how they actually put this tree up. It was very interesting as you will see by the pictures, they shape the nub on the end of the limb and drill it in to the tree. My next question was, if this is how they do it, how do they keep the tree looking so good through the holidays. The answer is, they put a coating on the tree. I am guessing some kind of silicone coating. If you want to see the tree lighting, it is November 21 and 22 at 6:00. Maybe I will be in the holiday mood by then. :)
My past weekend was fairly busy as I was down at Balboa Island holding houses open. Saturday I was at an open house on Coral. Very interesting street. Most had some kind of college flag hanging from their house. I am still not sure who was playing yesterday, but you could hear the couple across the street yelling and cheering during the course of the game. At one point a neighbor across the street yelled over to the couple to find out what the score is. Of course they yelled it back. This was very entertaining.
Busy week ahead. I am hoping to wrap up the new marketing piece and hopefully have a significant start on the new website. The website has to be up before the marketing piece goes out. Hopefully the new business cards will be complete too. It will be nice to have this all done so I can concentrate on other things. It will be a busy week as I am also showing homes to a couple of clients in the Corona del Mar area....as well as Aliso Viejo, Westcliff and Newport Heights area.
