Trip Day 2

I am doing yesterday's and today's posts during the same day. Today we went to see Monticello, pronounced in the Italian as Montichello. I saw some amazing things, including a phonograph(copies letters) think modern day photo copiers,  and a clock with balls that go into the ceiling and some amazing gardens.

Monticello is the home of Thomas Jefferson, our third president. He was elected after Washington and Adams. Jefferson lives only a few miles away from James Monroe, another president. Monticello holds a thousand feet of garden, Jefferson's grave and many other features.

Well, that's all for now!
I've gotta go and study some homework!
