A Rainy, Wintry Visit to Mount Vernon at Christmastime
You are here… somewhere.Allow me to introduce you to your hosts, George and Martha Washington.Here comes the Washington family now.Compare/contrast with my own family…. dashing away to see a movie about George before our tour.A view of the mansion from the front gate.Now, just a little closer….Moving right along… climb aboard….… and feel free to ride on ahead of me. I’ll catch up with you in my deluxe, upholstered carriage….… when it’s time to stop for some refreshment.We can take a break in this ultra-upscale visitor relaxation zone together.
A Few of the Finer Details
Caroling Colonials on the tree.A pathway to an overlook of the Potomac River.Three road surfaces. Which one (if any) do you think was the first?A pretty gated fence.Christmas wreaths at George and Martha’s grave site.Always worth taking chances for….
