Christmas Beauty Along the Coast Road in Carlsbad

Christmas Beauty Along the Coast Road in Carlsbad

 

Every year I take at least 1 drive down the Coast Road (historic Route 101 a.k.a. Carlsbad Boulevard) south from Carlsbad to check out several old trees on the bluff that get decorated, a snare some photos.

 

I don't go all the way to the Encinitas border so perhaps I am missing some more beauty, besides the ocean itself!

 

Holiday Tree on the Coast Road

 

I don't know if the same people decorate the trees every year nor who they are...I saw 3 trees today...and it really doesn't matter. Whoever they are I'm sure they have lots of fun, and truly enjoy the beauty they bring to these wizened trees overlooking the ocean below, and to so many people who drive by to look, and to take photos - not easy to do because of limited parking.

 

Whoever you are...THANK YOU!

So true Hannah Williams 

I have to say I really like seeing these trees decorated for the holidays. But then I enjoy all the decorations anyhow.

Morning Jeff.

Been on 101, from San Francisco all the way to the Oregon coast, and south to San Diego.  It was a wonderful drive.

Hi Jeff, I've done that drive, albeit a very, very long time ago (like 40+ years ago). Love that  tree... then again I love all Christmas trees. :)

Rocky Dickerson told me that he used to live in your neck of the woods, I wonder if he has ever seen this tree?

Jeff that is a creative idea.  Around here it would probably be old worn out sneakers hanging from that tree ☺️

It's a great road to drive on although I have only been on parts of it. It covers just about everything you can imagine, with all sorts of stuff to see!

Bet he has Brian England 

Rocky Dickerson  I suspect these trees have been decorated for years - they have been in the 15 years we have been here!

Hi Jeff,
I love that the weathered trees are not forgotten.  I bet that is a drive you look forward to with anticipation every year.  Fun tradition.

Hi Jeff Dowler, CRS how fun is this!!  It's always a treat to experience the unexpected during the holidays!  We've done this same thing every year for years on a tree half way up the hill behind our home.  Everyone brings ornaments up and then we take them all down after the holidays.

How fun!   That tree definately is the "traditional" type of Christmas tree. lol  Yet, it is perfect.  Thanks for sharing this picture.  Seeing it brought me some joy.
