This weekend Irma and I took a trip to Staunton, Virgina to visit Jared and Lisa, my son and daughter-in-law. Had a great time poking around Staunton and then going to Monticello, home of Thomas Jefferson.
Overview of Staunton from the hill. In the background the large brick buildings with white roofs were originally built in the early 1800's as a mental hospital, then a Confederate Army hospital then a prison and now they are being converted into condominiums. Each unit complete with complimentary spirit presence.
Main street Staunton.
Some of the old architecture. They seemed to have a thing for building towers and clocks back then. I think we have replaced this with the iPhone.
Monticello
Why yes, I'd be happy to join you in the parlor for some home made wine. Please serve the good stuff, not that grog you serve to George and James.
I think this tree is as old as Tom himself.
He knows how to pick a view.
Greetings from Virginia!
