Monticello - Charlottesville, Virginia

An Aerial View of Monticello (Thomas Jefferson's Home) Charlottesville, VA. - This historical shrine near Charlottesville is visited by thousands yearly.  Designed and built by Jefferson and his slaves, the beauty of this mansion and surrounding grounds can be seen from this aerial view.

  1. Jefferson, my Jungle Fever brother, has always been one of my favorite presidents. Sadly, I have yet to tour Monticello, or even make it directly to his monument in DC (though I have passed it more than once). I like the fact that one postcards gives some credit to the slaves.
