I don't want to imagine that what it would be like during the season. I was too busy taking pictures to dip my toes in the water, but I'm sure it was chilly -- but, yes, warmer than Canada, likely.

I can imagine what it looks like in July! Water right now is probably warmer than anything we'd get in Canada, though. Virginia beach looks like it’s definitely in “off season”.

I don't know what the name of the flower is. We were in a group getting a tour of the garden, otherwise I would have tried to get pictures of the stakes with the names instead of trying to take pictures AND keep up with the group. Teeni – Thanks!

Michelle - Thanks, we are enjoying the trip, though it looks like we'll be delaying our next trip. Debo - Thanks! We just crossed the Potomac an hour or so ago into Virginia -- and then, almost immediately, we were in West Virginia! Leslie - The first time we visited Monticello was on July 4th many years ago. We weren't thinking! The lines were horrendous, but it was very neat. Vered – Thanks. It’s a pretty neat place!

I took an entire class on Jefferson's Monticello in college, but the last time we were near there we got called home early and didn't squeeze in a visit. We're hoping to see it this August. <abbr><em>Leslie’s last blog post..<a href="http://fivetonine.wordpress.com/2009/05/15/the-sun-also-rises/">The sun also rises!</a></abbr></em> Again, envious am I.
