The National Christmas Tree

Since it was almost balmy last night (around 40 F), we went to the White House to see the National Christmas Tree. Unlike other years, it had a model train running around its base (visible if you look closely) and an entire model train setup, part of which can be seen in the foreground. The White House was directly behind it and impossible to include well in shots of the tree.

modestly upbeat decs, perhaps appropriate in the current tempestuous political climate...still there is a hint of optimism here....astutely captured image..
