Trip to Monticello

A few years ago, I took Tyson on a tour of Mt. Vernon, George Washington's home. So for this trip, I decided a tour of Monticello, home of Thomas Jefferson, was in order.

For this trip, we brought both the ring sling and the ergo. After much struggling, we finally got  Tyson strapped up and Tyler packed into the ergo.

Yeah, that lasted abut 20 minutes...Although the temperature was only around 90 degrees, the humidity was brutal, especially for desert folk.

All that green is beautiful, but we concluded that we prefer the climate in Tucson.

Here's proof that I do still exist! Sadly, this is about as awake and well rested as I can be these days...

After the tour, Tyson took a moment to introduce Tyler to Thomas Jefferson.

All in all, we decided we liked Mt. Vernon much better. We'll have to take Tyler there someday when he's old enough to stay awake and actually see it.
