Mt. Vernon, Virginia
Home of George Washington
 
          


On Tuesday June 16, 2009 Mikey and I spent the afternoon at the home of George Washington.  It was more than home, it was a place of business.  It was fun to learn all the history and avoided a sunburn even without sunscreen!

Here are a few pictures of that trip.  Click on them to make them bigger.
