The Capitol Christmas Tree







This year's Capitol Christmas Tree is came form Skalkaho Montana. We just got a mail from my husband's aunt with a news paper article about the cutting of the Christmas tree for the US Capitol. She said that they didn't make it cause Uncle Bob was not feeling fine.
I been to that place like 2 times, it's very nice place a lot of pines everywhere that's why we liked to go to that place every time we're going to visit to Montana. Smelling some fresh airs and my husband and i are both nature's lover, we both like exploring the wilderness and have a picnic. Skalkaho falls along the road and runs to the the creek, clean fresh water. Very well taking cared and preserved.
This year's Capitol Christmas Tree is a 100 foot subalpine fir and only cut 75 foot just right for the Capitol. The tree well be placed in front of the Capitol were everybody will enjoy it for the coming holiday.
The pictures is around that place, they call that place the gem mountain cause it's abundant with sapphires. Last year we tried to look for our own sapphire i blog about it in here. We didn't stopped and explore around woods and creeks cause there are still some ice around and i can't find the pictures of out first trip were we took around some creeks and took some pictures of some deer also.
