It's beautiful! Thank you for answering. I was afraid people would be offended I would ask such a question. I could only think of the dinette as a place to put a tree....

Our six cats would LOVE that tree! It might last 30 min before it'd be on the floor!!!

I built a cover for the steering wheel that we could use. It's mainly to keep the cats from sounding the air horns at 2:00 am! Boy are they LOUD at that time of day! Doesn't make your neighbors happy either.

I have 4 cats and I'm sure unless I tie it down they will turn it into a frisbee. Even in my sticks and brick I had to wire the tree to the wall to keep it from going over. They thought it was an exciting "cat" tree!!!

Our tree is safe. The only animal in our RV is the stuffed dog under the tree.

We moved the recliner to make room. Our dog had no interest in the tree.

I buy a live spruce in a pot then donate it or plant it. Cat doesn't like the prickly needles.

Not really, I like Egg Nog and rum. The only time I can get the nog is around this time of year.

Well thank you. This was one of two years we were away at Christmas 2002. My wife is a Christmas----, well it is just very important to her, so I did everything I could to make it cheery. On the outside I had lights surrounding our lot and some other decorations.

All to no avail, she just cannot stand being away from our youngest G-kids at Christmas, so here we are still at our stick and brick. Just decorated our big tree tonight. We will leave here a few days after Christmas for some sunshine and warm days in the Southwest for about four months.

Our HR has one of those steering wheels that goes straight up and down and we have a table to put the tree on,
This will be the first Christmas we will have been away from all the Grandkids, mostly teen agers now, just mailed the first check to one so she could buy a senior sweatshirt at school as part of her Christmas gift, gave another one of the beds from our S&B with the understanding it was her Christmas present early-(knowing Rita there will be more)
Rita is already being sad about the family seperation.

There was a thread last Christmas that had several really nice pictures of decorated motorhomes, haven't found it yet.

In searching I ran across this one posted by Wayne last year. Nothing to do with lights but was by far my favorite Christmas post last year, worth sharing again.
