Victoria Gardens adds 50-foot Christmas tree

Commuters traveling past Victoria Gardens today shouldn't be alarmed. The 50-foot Christmas tree protruding from the mall's center courtyard didn't spring up overnight.

what a waste of a tree. it could have been producing air. instead it is only going to be there

for a month before it becomes compost

Dear Hum Bug, you could have done something more productive with your time, rather than sitting on a computer wasting electricity.

Just be careful. The Santa Ana winds have snapped the Christmas tree at Victoria Gardens before. Been a quiet wind season so far.

[Delightfully Mind Numbing]

Give it up to Sandra the revered staff writer - the only thing alarming is her apparent innate ability to point out the obvious and ridiculous. So, here is a sobering thought; perhaps, the artificial creation known as Victoria Gardens should have used an artificial tree. It could stand as a testament to the mindless and gullible that call RanchoGhettoMonga home.
