October is a beautiful time of year to visit Monticello. We had a blast!!!
Sharon and I giving Tommy J. some lovin' before heading up to Monticello.
Oh boy....Tom got some great pictures of the flowers in the garden!
Getting ready for our tour. Notice how everyone looks very intellectual and studious...then there's me cheesin' it up for the camera.
We had a fantastic tour guide!
So pretty!
I don't remember what this is. But I'm sure it's something historically significant.
I'd LOVE to have a garden like this one!
Ha, I have no idea...something clearly wasn't right.
Chillin' at Monticello.
Thomas Jefferson's grave.
Yeah, we were so not ready for a picture, TOM!!!
Whoops, almost.
That's better.One of our favorite things to do when they are here is go to Washington...especially at night!
She was not thrilled about having her picture taken while wearing a hat.
A cool shot of our flag!
CHEEEEEESE!!!
I LOVE Washington at night. It's my favorite time to be there!
We had never been to the Smithsonian before and they just happened to be open late the night we were there.
Ooooo, SHINY!!!
I took Tom in to see the Hope Diamond. We discussed what a proper engagement ring should look like. He now knows what to shop for. ;)
BIG elephant inside the Smithsonian.
Don't look now! But that smile is about to be wiped off your face!!!
Did you ever get that feeling that there is something huge and creepy behind you? Sharon feels that way.
I LOVED this place! Could've spent another two days in there.
BIG elephant again.
Mmmmm....
Sharon and I clearly got the memo to smile for the camera. Then there's Mr. Personality to the left. ;)
A view of Washington from Arlington House.
This is taken from the top of the hill at Arlington Cemetery. If you look closely, you can see the Jefferson Memorial.
