Made this pilgrimage a couple of years ago. Was disillusioned with the image of George Bush`s America. It is nice to see the world Thomas
Jefferson saw and touched.

They dont show you the upstairs at Monticello, and I havent been able to find pictures. Wonder what it looks like.

Something can be said for a President who`s pasttime is raising flowers, instead of cutting brush.

The highlight for me was his gravestone and what he considered important:

Here was buiried Thomas Jefferson,
Author of the Decleration of Independence,
of the Statuate of Religious Freedom,
and father of the University of Virginia.
