Glimpses of Mt Vernon Estate

George Washington’s home is made of wood, but is built to look like a brick facade, how clever… and great backyard view of the Potomac River. The orientation and education center and museum had really great exhibits that told personal stories about GW, using both forensic science to recreate how he looked to detailed videos giving a modern view of his life, ranging from his military strategies to treatment of his slaves and his life with his family and his revolutionary peers. My photos were mostly when we were walking on the estate, since I didn’t take pictures inside the exhibits.
