Monticello
Now at Monticello, there is no photography permitted inside the house (for concern over damage to the artifacts inside due to camera flashes). However, photography is permitted on the grounds of Monticello. And the grounds are just wonderful. Besides the house, there's tunnels under the house, gardens, paths, you name it. Now for this photo set, I'm going to let the pictures speak for themselves, and only comment as necessary, since this photo set is all in the eye candy...
The tunnels beneath the house...
This is the end of a clock that shows the day of the week as well as the time. Due to lack of space, Jefferson had to cut a hole in the floor for Saturday. Since this set was made on a Saturday, it is marked accordingly.
The gardens...
Mulberry Row...
Jefferson's gravesite...
The shuttle trail...

On the last day of the Photo Essay Blitz, I went to Charlottesville. The first item on the list was Monticello, home of Thomas Jefferson, our third President.
