Doug Fir Holiday Road Trip

A small, yet very tall piece of Oregon came to Kansas City, Mo., as Willamette Industries, Portland Or., delivered its annual charity Christmas

The 100-ft. Douglas fir, cut from company forestlands in Lebanon, Or., arrived Nov. I in downtown Kansas City after a six-day drivefrom the Northwest.

The tree took two weeks to decorate and featured 1.000 ornaments and 7,000 lights. The project was part of a 17-year partnership between Hallmark Cards and Willamette.

After the holidays the tree will be milled into commemorative ornaments with proceeds benefiting the Kansas City Mayor's Christmas Tree Fund.
