This is a recreation of the home of George Washington, 1st president of the USA. His home is located in Virginia on a bluff overlooking the Potomac River. For this exhibit the building was completely made of all natural materials. I was not able to catch a train in the shot as that particularly line was down due to a mechanical problem at the time.

Mechanical problem hey Kathy probably a points failure due to excessive heat, I imagine there was commuter chaos!

A fine addition to the series, let's hope they get those trains rolling soon.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Does resemble the Mt. Vernon I remember. A few Caedes members had an excursion there back in 2008.

I imagine the Washington's are grateful for the failure of the train. It will give them a chance to get some uninterrupted sleep while it is down. A good capture of the scene Kathy. Nice clarity and colours.
