(Washington, DC)  --  The official Christmas Tree is now at the U.S. Capitol after traveling across the country from Oregon.  Nikki Swanson with the U.S. Forest Service says the tree is an 80-foot-tall Noble fir from the Willamette National Forest.  The tree traveled nearly three-thousand miles in a three-week journey to make its way to the Capitol.  A different national forest is picked each year to provide the Capitol Christmas tree.
