A holiday tradition for one local family is to go to Richards Tree Farm in Mapleton with out-of-state relatives to pick out just the right Christmas tree. Standing with their special tree are, from left, front row, Ryan, Olivia and Carol Austin. Back row, Emily and Larry Austin and Evelyn and Dwight Hewins. The Austins live in Caribou and the Hewins are from Middletown, Conn.
