We regularly visit Mount Vernon and are so appreciative of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association and all that they have done, and are doing, to preserve, restore, and manage the estate. It's difficult to choose our favorite time of the year to visit, but we really enjoy the Fall Harvest Family Days, when Pioneer Farm comes alive with activities and you get to greet General Washington and hear him speak. Here is a photo of our daughter with the General, as portrayed by the superb historical interpretive actor Dean Malissa. Karen Wetzel, 2018
