A Gift from the Evergreen State to the "Other" Washington

A little bragging rights for my home state right now —-

Washington State sent a 65-foot Pacific Silver Fir tree, from our Olympic National Forest, to the “other” Washington for the Capitol Christmas Tree.  With the theme “A Gift from the Evergreen State,” the tree is decorated with 3,000 Washington state themed ornaments made by area students.

Details regarding the December 6th tree lighting ceremony can be found at The DC Traveler (thanks Jon).
