Monticello

Just when you thought I was done talking about summer I bring it up again.

I went to Monticello, for the second time, with my friends Laura, Amy, and Anna. They came to DC when I was there a couple years ago and we spent their last day there at Mount Vernon so we decided to make it a tradition and go to the home of another president on their last day here. Since it was my second time visiting Monticello and I was still suffering from KES I wasn't all that into it-nothing against Monticello- it's an amazing place- my friend Jenel says she understood Jefferson much better after visiting there (well, if I remember correctly, she was talking about his motivation for slave owning, but I digress...). Anyway, I only took a couple pictures- sorry you'll have to refer to my first post about Monticello or go there yourself if you want more.

Rest stops in Virginia...



Rest stops in Utah...

Yorktown... I think

So I think this picture is from Yorktown- maybe Laura, Amy or Anna will comment and correct me or fill in the story behind this house. I was kind of checked out the day we went to Yorktown- I blame Keio Exhaustion Syndrome (KES) perhaps that also explains my current procrastination and lethargy.

More Summer Photos

Forgive me I still have catching up to do....

Here are some more pictures from my friends trip out, these are from our trip to Historic Jamestown, my first trip there- it was very pretty and worth the trip out- I'll have to take my next visitors there too.

recent unexpected trip home

Here's Rusty hanging out with Angel and Kate (a hamster).

Dallas

If you haven't watched Dallas you have no idea how awesome this is. Still, it's too funny.

self defense

Oddly enough this clip ties in nicely with the reading I did this week.

another trip to CW

The same day my sister left a few of my friends arrived for a short visit. We spent there first day here at Colonial Williamsburg. Here are some of the pictures, they'll look familiar because I have been there too many times!
