An early Christmas gift to Boston is on it's way from Nova Scotia. This year's tree is a 15-metre white spruce from North Alton owned by Gary and Roseann Misner. The 2010 Boston Tree was cut on Tuesday morning November 16th at 10 a.m . About 160 students from Wolfville School, New Minas Elementary and Kings County Academy attended and author Bruce Nunn read selections from Buddy the Bluenose Reindeer and The Boston Christmas Tree Adventure. The tree will serve as the focal point for the annual tree-lighting ceremony at the Boston Common on December 2. For more than 30 years, Nova Scotia has donated a giant evergreen each year to the people of Boston as a thank you for their assistance following the 1917 Halifax Explosion. The tree's journey to Boston can be followed on Twitter with @novascotialife.Tuesday, November 16, 2010
