A note of caution- since it is 2 days after Christmas- and folks may be looking at disposing of a Christmas Tree. Burning branches from a Christmas Tree, with needles in place, will result in an incredibly HOT and FAST fire. You have a very high chance of starting a chimney fire, setting your home on fire, and being called very bad names by your Significant Other. While WOOD from a Fraser fir might be burned (not really great firewood, but can be burned) please do NOT try to dispose of your Christmas tree in the fireplace. Best wishes for a happy, SAFE New Year-
