Though it be cold, we ventured out to see the Christmas sights in DC. The first stop was the Biological Gardens by the Capitol. Lots of poinsettias and trees decorated for Christmas. We walked over to the congressional tree. We found out last year we liked this much better than the White House tree - "of the people" and all that. This year was Wyoming's turn to decorate. While we were at that end of the Mall, we visited the National Art Gallery Rotunda to see the decorations and found a choir singing carols. Nice touch. We headed then for the Smithsonian Old Castle, stopping at the ice rink in the Sculpture Gardens first.
Included here are pictures of the White House tree we went down to see on the 31st. And our own humble decorations in our place in Alexandria - Sue makes a little go a long ways.
