Mount Vernon

We went to Mount Vernon (which I kept referring to as Martha's Vineyard) after the museums. It rained on our way out but cleared up when we got off the bus. Our time there was a little short because of traffic back in the city.









I don't have a lot of photos because you weren't allowed to take pictures inside the house... I took this one before the lady said anything ;o)

There wasn't much furniture but the beds were really short (Handy would never have fit in one comfortably) and some of the original paint colors were strange, like bright green strange.



The view from the back was awesome. They said that Mount Vernon had bought all the property on the far side of the river so the view would be the same as when old George lived there.
