#6 Thomas Jefferson's Monticello, Charlottesville, VA

The Ballard Boys have been busy since our last travels... They have left stormy KY for the beautiful and historic Charlottesville, VA. So fittingly we begin our travels with Thomas Jefferson's Monticello!

Taken advantage of our long 4th of July weekend, the Ballard Boys escaped to Thomas Jefferson's mountain to explore his pride and joy.

Jebby exploring Jefferson's many vegetable gardens.

Time for a little rest in a "shady pot" as William would say...

All-in-All a fabulous last minute trip out to Monticello! Everyone was fabulous and welcoming to a family who forgot their stroller! William's only disappointment was that he never got to meet Mr. Jefferson. Mr. Jefferson we will be back!
