Roy,

How wonderful, and we have not seen it.  I remember talking to my parents and loved how excited they felt about being there!  A

Roy Kelley - I've been there! I took my children there too when they were in grade school. It was such a fun and educational experience. I highly recommend anyone who hasn't been there to make sure they put it on their bucket list. Although many, many years have past, I do seem to recall a great Tavern/Restaurant near-by too. I also recall how important it was for school children to learn about their Presidents and respect their leadership too. That is something I instilled in my children too. The position of President is a very important role and is not easy.

Roy, 

Okay, on the bucket list, for sure.  I think I will put it on a fall season.

Such a beautiful place, Mount Verson, Roy... and how appropriate that admission is free on President's Day. Wouldn't mind a return visit there one day.

Hi Roy - your post title caught my attention.  My only trip to visit Mount Vernon was about thirty years ago.  I don't recall the admission price but free sounds pretty good.  How is the weather there these days.  I believe I was there during the Spring/Summer.

I remember visiting Mount Vernon when I was a kid, but I don't recall if we had to pay or not.

What a beautiful residence.  I haven't seen it, but Bernie has and says it's quite lovely. Beautiful view of the Potomac River too.

What a perfect opportunity to view and learn at Mount Vernon, Roy Kelley ... pair that with the upcoming special being aired on Washington on the History Channel, starting February 16th and it's a wonderful pairing of educational opportunity ...

Great share ...
