Santa at the National Christmas Tree

Posted on 21:49 by rendy orton
Every year, I love to see the National Christmas Tree, even if it is extremely anti-climactic and there are significantly more impressive trees in other DC locations as well as up in NYC's Rockefeller Center.
More than the tree, this annual excursion is about the people I go with and the jolly fat man we see there.

Yes, it's a little-known fact, but a satellite branch of Santa's workshop is set up right by the White House and you can meet that famous cookies-and-milk-devouring gift-deliverer.
So even if the actual tree isn't all that impressive, I still love going down and braving the DC cold.
