🏛️ A little history, beautiful views, and a step back in time!
We recently visited Monticello in Charlottesville, Virginia, the home of Thomas Jefferson…the third U.S. president and the author of the Declaration of Independence, and the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom of Religion.
It was fascinating to walk the grounds, see the home up close, and learn more about Jefferson’s life, accomplishments, and love of architecture and gardening. The visit also offered a deeper look at the lives of the people who lived and worked on the property.
Monticello offers several tours, so there’s plenty to discover beyond the beautiful views! We followed our visit with a stop by Jefferson Vineyards for some local w**e and live music! 🍷🎶
📍 If you’re planning a trip to Charlottesville, this one is well worth adding to your itinerary.
