I was just about to decorate with lights and other Christmas ephemera that rather dreary area along the driveway entrance to the Christ Church campus when two fellows in unmarked vehicles came by, trimmed the tree, and left. Since casual conversation and eye-contact were not on their agenda, they were unclear about what else they have planned. However, I appreciate the Lone Rangers, mystery men that they are, for trimming and caring for the tree with such zeal.
I think I'll decorate the area next year.
