Via Washington Post:
It seems inevitable, for a year in which so little has gone well, that something would be awry with the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree — an annual source of holiday joy. If 2020 were a movie, we’d complain that the screenwriters are getting lazy.
This plot point is a little too on-Rudolph’s-nose.
And yet, here we are. On Saturday, the 75-foot-tall tree from Oneonta, N.Y., arrived at its yearly home in front of 30 Rockefeller Plaza. As a crane lowered it into place, the Norway spruce looked a little worse for wear. The bottom limbs appeared to be bare, and its needles hung limply, as if the tree had just climbed out of the shower. Meanwhile, it leaned to the side, as if unsteady on its trunk.
