Mary Washington, the Mother of George!


Mary Washington Monument
 As we ran our errands today we ended up near the Mary Washington Monument in Fredericksburg, VA.  It required me to come home and look her up on the internet. 

She appears to be a very interesting woman.  Looks like George was raised by a single, working mom.  See, latchkey kids can be president. lol

It is only 40 feet high and was built near a meditation rock where Mary liked to spend time, near her daughter's home.
