What better way to say I am thankful
for living in a free country
North Entrance to Monticello

Thomas Jefferson.

Even though Jefferson was a writer, an architect,
an inventor, an educator
and the 3rd President of the United States
when asked his occupation
he always referred to himself as a farmer.
Monticello overlooks the town of Charlottesville, Virginia
and the University of Virginia which Jefferson founded.
A link to Thomas Jefferson's Monticello
is found here.
Today at Monticello:
Fourth of July Celebration and Naturalization Ceremony
are being held.
