Thing 5 with picture

I found a picture of James Madison's "Temple" on Flickr.  I chose this picture because Bob and I visited there while we were on vacation in Virgina a couple of weeks ago.

This is James Madison's "Temple" it is located a Montpilier in Virgina about 45 miniutes west of Harrisonburg.  It was placed over an "ice house" and they stored ice and other things that needed to be kept cold.  This allowed the Madisons to have ice for cold drinks and provide guests with things they might not otherwise have had available to them in the summer.

  1. It's nice to be able to find pics of places that you've been. I know that often my pictures aren't so great, but others may have an image that really does the place justice.
