Oh Christmas Tree
Some people collect shoes, others collect books. I think we all have some sort of collection stashed away… It just seems that some collections are stranger than others.
My dad, bless his heart, (my southern twang is coming back very quickly) collects Star Trek Christmas tree ornaments. He has purchased EVERY “Trekie” ornament for the past 15ish years. Keep in mind that most years the dear folks at Halmark introduce 2 or 3 new Star Trek ornaments. His collection has become a bit of a running joke around our house. We give that man so much hell each and every year as he dusts off the 50 or so (very tacky) tree decorations. And don’t think for a second that his idea of holiday cheer is allowed anywhere near the family Christmas tree. His ornaments have been banned to a tree of their very own. My step-mom has no intention of letting the Star Ship Enterprise mingle with the snowmen and angels that adorn the real tree.
Honestly, the collection is probably worth a fortune. But that’s really beside the point…
Without further delay, my (very proud) dad’s 2008 Star Trek tree: 
Be impressed.
