Mount Vernon

A couple of weekends ago we went down to Mount Vernon, George Washington's home, for the day. We took a sightseeing boat down the Potomac River to get to Mount Vernon and then back again. It was really neat. We all enjoyed it, but the girls thought the boat trip was a little long (an hour and a half each way). We didn't get to see everything there, so we'll be going back sometime.

This is the mansion. Quite impressive.

This is the view of the Potomac (and our boat) from the back of the mansion.

This is our house as seen from the river. YEAH, RIGHT! (There are some pretty awesome, huge homes on the Potomac.)


Hailey and "massive head-wound Harry".

Chris took this picture from the boat. If you look closely the bird has a fish in its mouth.
