Field Trip – Keller Style, Part 6

Day Three, in which it is too cold and too windy to even conceive of walking around downtown.  So we drove to Alexandria.  And drove around.  And stayed in the car.  Because, y’know: heat.  And then drove further down the road to Mount Vernon…
In California, we have earthquakes, so we don’t tend to have brick buildings.  These were soooo pretty. There was still a tiny bit of Fall left.  It must have been truly glorious Fall color about a month ago. And this is as close as we got to actually seeing Mount Vernon.  To see the real thing would have cost $80.  We didn’t want to see it that badly.  Because, y’know:  cold.  And $80. Another gorgeous sunset greeted us back at our hotel.
