Someone new

Only a couple of you will know who this young lady is. I met her on the 4th of July at Rick and Cathy's. She was sweet and personable and allowed me to take pictures of her so that I could draw her cute face. I hope I did it justice.
B....... if you see this,
I hope you like it.

God Bless America

I do love this land called America. I often wonder what I did so right in the pre-existance that made we worthy to come to earth and be a citizen of this great country. Yes...we do have our flaws and problems. But, we do have a freedom that can't be compared.
Below I have posted some pictures of places we went on our trip. It was an eye-opener and made me appreciate our founding fathers and what they went through to bring to us such a wonderful place to live. Enjoy!!!
HAPPY 4th of JULY !!!
George Washington
Mt. Vernon (George Washington's favorite place)

Old Glory...long may she wave!


James and Dolly Madison



Montpelier
Home of James Madison
See the three little windows over the door?
That's the room where the Constitution was first drafted.


Monticello
Home of Thomas Jefferson
The Declaration of Independence was drafted in this home.
