Huachuca, AZ in a small condo complex. One of the units was inhabited by two young male lieutenants who were stationed at the base. Because the layout of the complex was in the shape of a U, we often ended up with tumbleweeds that made their way in but not back out. The Lts. stuck a stick in the ground in the corner near their door, dropped a couple tumbleweeds onto the stake, and then strung them with lights. Both funny and festive.
I googled tumbleweed christmas tree and apparently it's big deal and yearly event in Chandler AZ.

Maybe that should have gone in the what do you know today thread.
Theirs was much less fancy! It was two or three tumbleweeds on a stick...with a little imagination they probably could have made it look like a snowman.
