A little tree was spotted just off the road in the ditch next to the Okotoks Cemetery. A little pine tree doing its best to poke through the mounds of snow. 

What's special about this humble little tree is that someone has decorated it. Lights, stars and all. Powered by a small battery pack! 

It was spotted on January 1st and posted to an Okotoks Community Facebook page where it quickly got town-wide recognition! 

As we wind down from Christmas and many indoor trees are making their way to a collection point or chopped up this little guy stands proud well into 2022!

“Anything we don't like, we'll turn it into a happy little tree or something; we don't make mistakes, we just have happy accidents.” ― Bob Ross

I wonder how long it'll last before the deer get curious and decide to wear it as a fashion accessory...
