The other day, Jeff had the privilege of blacksmithing at Mount Vernon after a light snow. He took these photos. It was a quiet morning and the view from the porch would have been one George Washington would have recognized since the view has been protected. That's pretty amazing to think about....
The article linked to above mentions that General/President Washington would pull his furniture from his parlor to the piazza, so he would not have likely had the many chairs that currently line it but would have had other furniture. Other than that, these photos could speak to another time.
