I am surprised to learn that having a traditional Christmas tree is a big deal in Hawaii. Pine trees do grow here, but they look a little different.
The branches are spaced out on the trunk.
And the branches reach out with their fingertips, unlike the ones in Colorado who make a fist.
But the trees grown here are apparently not sufficient for the seasonal demand. The paper says 100,000 trees are shipped in to Hawaii in containers like this one.
They go from the container to tents like this one in Kailua.
I'm happy to let the pine tree outside our door decorate itself.
