National Christmas Tree Lighting & Pageant of Peace
December
For 85 years, the American tradition of lighting a national Christmas Tree has continued, interrupted only briefly in its history during moments of great national travail. The tree itself is a live 40-foot Colorado blue spruce transplanted from York, Pennsylvania to its present site on the Ellipse in 1978. The Pageant of Peace includes live performances and the lighting of the National Christmas Tree. Each night during December, musical groups perform free concerts for the entertainment of visitors to the Ellipse.

When on holiday I prefer to enjoy soaking up the last bit of sun down south and enjoy a glass of soda. By the way, my sister really wanted to be a professional nurse. My sister is really very interested in becoming a nurse. She’s really wanted to save a lot of people. And I strongly support her decision. In my opinion, a job as a nurse is very noble job.
