The house of an influential president.

The Thanksgiving holiday presented the opportunity to finally take some time off from work for a long 4 day weekend. Claudia and I decided to take a road trip to the house of one of the most influential figures in US history.

More after the jump.

Pack the car and leave this town….

Well, not really leave the town, as Claudia and I were discussing on the way back. While Luray Caverns are about 90 minutes away from DC, there is really no other major city closer.

For our anniversary we decided to pack up the car and the pets and head out to one of the sites I have wanted to go to since I first moved here. Maybe I’m biased since I have not really seen caverns like this before, but it was breath taking. Hit the jump to see some photos and read more about the trip.
