Florida Christmas tree 2
Last year the Florida Christmas tree posted on this blog shone with lights.
No branches. Strings of lights at the Cedar Key marina
glowing in the dark like a beacon.
Now for a tree like none you’ve ever seen,
I’ve reprised an image I took years ago, during a visit with
Betty Mae Tiger Jumper in South Florida.
This tree stood tall in the Seminole Tribe of Florida
headquarters, with a palm tree nodding nearby.
The tree is typical. Maybe yours is tall & green.
Red bows are standard. So are basic balls.
But the dolls!
How many trees have you seen, where dolls are the decoration.
Handmade dolls.
Dolls made with palm fibers. And dressed to represent
Seminole patchwork clothing. For the textile, fabric art
& history buff this tree isĀ worth a detour.

This is a little visit, here.
Or maybe it will inspire you to plan your trip.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Meet me & a ga-zillion other folks at the Florida coast, Feb. 13, 2010 just after lunch at 12:30 p.m.
Link hands along the shore.
Let our leaders know how protective we are, of Florida’s shores.
This is organized by a Seaside Florida restaurant owner.

or the Facebook page of the same name.
If we don’t show our strength & carry the day, we’ll all be searching for appropriate gear to wear for continual beach clean up. Here’s a future newspaper I conjured up from the coast town where I spent childhood time at the beach. Tar balls, anyone?
Florida Christmas
A Green Christmas tree, in Florida, CEDAR KEY.
A fishing net, cast upon a pole.
Shells in the net. (Let’s hope the shells are castaways & weren’t taken live.)
Colored lights.
