I came the Mount Vernon in November 2019 for the George Washington Symposium. As luck had it, that coincided with the early morning photo shoot. While the sky was very light in the east and illuminated the mansion, it was still deep blue in the west and that made a nice combination with the warm lighting on the piazza. Frank Shoemaker, 2019

My daughter, Annabelle, loves visiting Martha. Getting to spend time with Martha is always the highlight of her trip. From her first visit Annabelle has loved “the president’s house” and so we became members. Then she met Martha and Mount Vernon really came to life for her. Every day she asks to go back and see Martha. She’s even made a pot holder that she wants to give to her when we finally get to go back. Mount Vernon is a very special place for our family.

I came the Mount Vernon last November for the George Washington Symposium. As luck had it, that coincided with the early morning photo shoot. This is a composite of several images to show the star trails. The sky is lightening in the east behind the mansion as the dawn comes on. Frank Shoemaker, 2019

I run a social group in Alexandria, Virginia and organized a trip for us to visit Mount Vernon. I had no idea how much fun that trip would be. Shortly after we returned, I ended up getting a membership and visiting several more times before the stay-at-home order. Mount Vernon very quickly became my happy place. I am very excited to return once everything reopens and explore more of this beautiful place. Lauren Proffitt, 2020
