Do you prefer to use a fake Christmas tree or a real tree? I prefer to use a fake because I don't have to throw it away. I can use it over and over again.

As far as I am concerned, since I live in Oregon it would Blasphemy to use a fake tree. They don't smell as good and I am not fake, so I don't use fake stuff.

I agree that it is easier to have a fake one. I have always had one growing up

I love using real trees when they actually do smell like pine. Lots of them don't, and it they do not smell like pine, they do not deserve to be in my house and get all dry and drop their needles all over the place.
If I lived somewhere where they actually smelled like pine (Like Old Buddy in Oregon), I would much rather have a real tree. ;)
FYI: If you do use a real pine tree, don't ever put it in your fireplace to burn it. They burn faster than anything you've ever seen and are slightly uncontrollable. Been there. Done that. Won't ever do it again. ::)

Just to set the record straight, Pine trees grow in Eastern Oregon, but on the west side of the Cascades where I live we have mostly Fir Christmas Trees. Douglas Fir, Noble Fir and Grand Fir are most popular with about 40 other varieties available.
