Nice visit to Mount Vernon

We're in Virginia for a wedding, just outside of washington DC. Flew in yesterday and had a bit of time to go visit Mt Vernon, the home of George and Martha Washington. We were among the only people there and ended having a virtually private tour. Very nice! Although Washington was not perfect (he owned slaves for example), he must have been a remarkable man, especially not letting power go to his head. We need more people like that today.
