Over the past few years, the cute rendition of a little red pick up truck with a Christmas tree in the back has been popping up on Christmas cards, as ornaments and on Christmas dinnerware, as well as on many other items.
This Christmas season, at Short’s Trees and Wreaths, located at 22080 St. Rt. 2, just northeast of Stryker, one can see the real thing! Bruce Short, owner and manager of Shorts, got the truck from his cousin who owns Sundays Market in Pettisville, Ohio, and it seemed natural to put a tree on it and let it be part of the draw to his tree outlet. The entire setting is delightful.
Mr. Short has been turning his big beautiful barn into a venue for a great Christmas Tree experience, with live music on the weekends, as well as a sleigh and the “little red truck” for family pictures. Recently he even added a delightful Santa’s House in the yard (More to come on that! 🙂 and Santa will be there on Saturday and Sunday, December 12 & 13, 2020 from 2-4 p.m. (PHOTO BY REBECCA MILLER)
