Jefferson was a fascinating man.<br />You took some wonderful photos and I enjoyed seeing the one of you.<br />And what a wonderful bed and breakfast you stayed in! Sounds like a memorable trip. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much.<br />It's good that your weather has finally cooled down. Ours has been too cool! And wet. But today was perfect...sunny and mild with no rain! I spent as much time as possible outside doing fall garden chores.Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18362584475435433892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-202962061904917598.post-28313820356393724072010-10-08T19:38:16.808-04:002010-10-08T19:38:16.808-04:00I want to visit Montibello some day.

I was fascinated with the history and the house.

We've been to George Washington's home Mount Vernon and in the first picture, Washington's kitchen looked about the same as this one. However, you are right about Jefferson's kitchen being among the best in Virginia. I've never seen anything like the clever burners or the beautiful cooper pots - even in Washington's kitchen. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by my blog. It's very nice to meet you. I'm going to have fun looking around. Looks like you love to travel!<br />SamSam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-202962061904917598.post-85914064088510603662010-10-07T02:49:46.046-04:002010-10-07T02:49:46.046-04:00Oh, how beautiful!
