A newspaper ad announcing the Meidi -ya store Christmas decorations. Meidi-ya first displayed a decorated Christmas tree in its Ginza store in 1904. It apparently attracted a great deal of attention.

Shoutout to Jordan's Market on Cole near Victory in #Boise.

I've been using the same #christmatree lot for a decade, but prices were nearly 2x this year, & as much as I like to be loyal to local businesses w/ good people, that was too much.

Jordans had great trees without clearing me out, and I'm sad to have to move on from the lot by my house, but as much as I love #christmas with a real tree, that was too much to spend on decoration.
