This was taken by our friend James the day after Flag Day. |
We spent Columbus Day at Mount Vernon |
The back of Mount Vernon - facing the Potomac - despite all the people it was exceptionally peaceful there. |

At Coco Sala, a chocolate boutique and restaurant. My champagne flight is in the foreground - Joey's scotch flight is in the background. We went for their three-course "dessert experience." Talk about fat girl heaven. |
Julia Child's kitchen at the Smithsonian American History Museum |
At the National Building Museum - they were setting up for a benefit dinner. |
Okay seriously, this is just not right - I can't decide who is more fearless - the squirrel for getting so close to a human or Joey for getting so close to a squirrel - ew! |
Since we went to Mount Vernon last weekend I thought it only fair that we visited Monticello this weekend. I didn't realize that it was a 2 1/2 hour drive...oops. |
A giant bumble bee at Monticello |
The view at Monticello - wow |
