I am continuing with the slides marked Virginia, October 1947. The three slides I am sharing today are from Radford, Virginia. I could not find the exact location of these photos or perhaps the place no longer exists.
I would be grateful if someone out there could point me in the right direction.
Have a good night.
Until next time…peace
Here is another small group of slides from an estate sale. The photographer was definitely a history buff. I am posting 3 slides today of Mount Vernon. The photos are from George Washington’s Mount Vernon.
The estate is located at 5513 Mount Vernon Memorial Hwy, Alexandria, VA 22309, and is still open for tours today. Another location I need to add to my growing bucket list.
The estate has tours, a museum, and George Washington’s Distillery® and Gristmill which is located 2.7 miles from the main entrance. I do not know if the original Gristmill in the above photo is part of the distillery. I need to research further.
Has anyone ever been here?
Let me know.
Until next time…peace
Hello, Happy November, everyone! Are you ready for a new month? I have been working on some of my estate purchases. These photos are from a group of slides labeled, Virginia, Oct. 1947.
Then, each slide was written on the cardboard part, too. I love that each one has a little information. The image below is labeled Monticello, VA, Oct. 1947.
The next image is labeled, Thomas Jefferson’s tomb, Oct. 1947.
Now, this place actually still exists. A World Heritage Site, it offers tours of the grounds, a museum, and a historical house. The address of Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello is 1050 Monticello Loop, Charlottesville, VA 22902.
Since I am a history buff, the next time I am in Virginia, I would take the tour. Has anyone been here before?
I plan to post more slides from this pack tomorrow.
Until next time…peace
