Suicide 6 generally refers to the stretch of 6 from Columbia to Bolton. Our stretch out here from Danielson to Windham has always had its own risk factor but as of late it’s been it’s own life flight creator. The spot where this accident happened has had 2 serious accidents in the last year which is crazy because it’s a fairly straight stretch of road with no passing.

Exactly, and yearly trimming not to mention keeping the trees clear of vines, mowing a few times a year and clearing other growth around them. Don’t forget land taxes and the time it takes to organize the cutting season with employees and food trucks. A cut tree at around $100 is a bargain.

To be fair, you’re 100% correct. I lived across the street from a tree farm in Brooklyn, CT (side note, make a day trip out of it, some good farms up this way). They’re up against tree to sale places that source all the way up to Canada and plastic trees that are amazing with lights built in. The cut your own tree experience is what you’re paying for. They are NOT making the bank some folks think they are. They’re keeping the Christmas tradition alive. There must be a Hallmark film that explains this… maybe “fresh needles for Santa?”
