Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I know, I know, it is only June - But glinNC started it!

For those of you who get real christmas trees for the holidays....

do they ever have....bugs?

I don't like bugs.

See, palm trees here in the SW can have scorpions living in them - in the layers of the trunks, etc.

So....I have always wondered about the whole live tree/bugs?

We had real trees until the last couple years, and we NEVER had a bug crawl out of one. So, I think you're safe
