Eight US presidents were born in the great Commonwealth of Virginia!  Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Harrison, Tyler, Taylor and Wilson… some pretty heavyweights in US history.  You could spend the upcoming President’s Day weekend sleeping in on Monday, or checking out the “Presdiential Cribs”. … possible new show for the History Channel?

Scattered across Virginia are the estates, universities, memorials, and monuments for these great leaders.  But none is more accessible from the 95 corridor than Mount Vernon, the estate, and burial ground of our #1 Commander and Chief, George Washington.

The Mount Vernon folks are making a trip to their locale even more enticing by offering reduced rates through the end of February and FREE Admission on the actual President’s Day Monday. A full slate of events are scheduled for the weekend, including a military encampment and military honors at Washington’s tomb.  Check out the discounts and events on their website MountVernon.org
