My parents, Paul & Cathy Troutman, sister Jennifer McGrath and her children Tyler, Jonas and Libby of Ashland, Pennsylvania, stopped at Mount Vernon on November 29th, 2012, while on our way to Norfolk Naval Station in Virginia. It was our first time visiting this historic site, and we were very warmly greeted as we entered the gate by someone familiar with our hometown in Pennsylvania. To visit at the onset of the Christmas holiday was an opportunity to see first-hand how President Washington and his family celebrated in the 18th century. To this day, we still have not attempted Martha Washington’s special family Christmas “great cake”. Forty eggs and four pounds of butter! Wow! Nick Troutman, 2012
