Edgemar Holiday Tree

(above) Artist Anthony Schmitt, 53, (right) with his assistants  Eron Nelson (left) and Shayne Trosdahl (center) build the  14th Annual 'Edgemar Holiday Tree' on Sunday, November 21, 2010. This years art sculpture/installation is titled, "The CourageTree." It is 33 feet tall and is constructed from 84 shopping carts. No scaffolding was used to erect the sculpture, it served as its own scaffolding. Schmitt uses shopping carts because they are a symbol both of abundance and a reminder of those less fortunate.
