Star Of Twigs

  You'll find this star of twigs (and many more like it) decorating the headquarters of Stonewall Kitchen in York, Maine.  It is a good place to stop and fill up on try some samples.

L.L.Tree

This is the Christmas tree located on the campus of L.L. Bean in Freeport, Maine. It is a live tree, so it is only going to get bigger every year (soory, not a live tree). The large green balls are bundles of regular-sized lights. The multi-colored lights you see are actually large illuminated Nalgene water bottles.

[update] I contaced L.L. Bean and a representative informed me the tree is "approximately 40 feet" tall (December 2006). As a point of comparison, this year's tree at Rockefeller Center in NYC is 88 feet tall. Of course, that one is not getting any taller.

Here is a close-up of the lights (click through a couple of times for detail):
