Presidents Day in Fredericksburg
First we set off for Kenmore Mansion. This is the home of Betty Lewis, George Washington's sister.
"Richly" decorated...on puropse. Show offs
In the Spring, the garden has more FLOWERS, but for now it's just bushy.

Ferry Farm!
Then it was off to George Washinton's boyhood home (and Betty's)
Driving into the visitors center. They don't have any actual structures from when the Washingtons lived there...they all burned down!
What a gorgeous day we had!! It actually ended up raining when we left and remained gloomy the rest of the day. Too bad for the boys, they went out camping afterwards!
Good ol' fashioned toys
Presidents Day is FREE admission day to both Kenmore and Ferry Farm. Definitely the day for everyone to go! They even serve cake to celebrate George's birthday
*yay!*
The river George grew up on... And so are some of us!

Yep... the camping didn't end up being too bad... although not as good as it could have been.... Oh well.... guess we'll have to wait till next time.
Still waiting for your girls to get a tent and come with us. There was a good spot next to my site earlier this week. 
yeah for real... in fact the ONLY thing i know i am NOT doing is school... after that it's all up in the air! but that's not a bad place to be... it's all gotta land somewhere!
THANKS SO MUCH GIRLS!!!
