Delicious brunch at this restaurant which is part of the Dinsmore House inn.

“The Dinsmore Boutique Inn takes its name from the home’s architect and builder, James Dinsmore. Perhaps no other person had as much of a hand in shaping the famous presidential homes of Virginia, and the University of Virginia than Dinsmore. This house is a standing testament to his craftsmanship and legacy. “Read more

A gal at the Jefferson Winery told us their cocktails were excellent. They were right.

A section of downtown Charlottesville closed off for street traffic. Restaurants, bars music venues and street performers galore.
TravelerWe especially liked the PIE shop.

Bonnie BenedictHow can that be bad? We just took a stroll waiting to eat until we got back to our Air B&B neighborhood.

Learned a lot today. Especially how Lincoln set the stage for a respectful surrender and reunification.

Shared a lovely wine tasting after our day at Monticello. All were tasty. Brought back a few bottles to enjoy when we’re tucked back in at night.

Sunny, beautiful, brisk day for our visit. Great tour guides for our tour of the house as well as for the “Slavery at Monticello” tour. Big change from my last visit. They were definitely not sugar coating the fact that Jefferson owned 600 slaves over the course of his life and only freed 6 upon his death.

In contrast George Washington freed all his slaves upon his death, and at some point during his lifetime as he became more enlightened, he refused to purchase any more.Read more

Also, made a stop in Fredericksburg at an antique mall. Alas, we didn’t see anything we couldn’t live without.
