Mount Vernon

The Flowers of Mount Vernon

Posted on by Justice

Getting to visit the home of George Washington was incredible. Just travelling through Virginia, I was overwhelmed by all of the history around me. I wanted to stop and see everything, but there wasn’t enough time. Visiting Mount Vernon was one of the highlights of the trip and I would definitely recommend visiting if you get the chance. (Disclaimer: Mount Vernon is privately owned, and tickets can get pricy. For anyone with a large family, consider buying a membership instead.) While we were there, I decided to take some pictures of the flowers I came across. That inspired me to write this article. It’s amazing all of the flowers and blossoms in Virginia at this time of year. It’s even more amazing because of the fact that the temperature at home is a whopping 19 degrees. Rather than taking the time to meticulously describe every flower I came across, I have decided to save time and include the pictures below. Please give this a like if you enjoy them.

My Dream Vacation.

Posted on by Justice

I just got back from a vacation that fulfilled my childhood dreams. When I was younger, I really wanted to go to Washington D.C. I wanted to see the Washington Monument and the original copies of our founding documents. I am so grateful that God blessed me with not just the opportunity, but also the perfect excuse for this trip. What was my excuse? College. I had been accepted to two different colleges in Virginia, and I wanted to go see the campuses before I had to make my decision. Ironically, I am still nowhere near a concrete decision, but I did learn a lot.

When it really comes down to it, I’m grateful that I got to go on the adventure of a lifetime and enjoy it with my family. I know that it has been a while since I updated the Adventure category. So, in the wise words of Nick Fury: “It’s about… time.” Get ready for a slew of new posts on adventures. Tips for navigating D.C. in just one day, a collage of flowers I found at Mount Vernon, and our first ever restaurant review. With summer coming up, it’s time to get ready for adventures of your own, and Life Adventure Games will be there with helpful advice along the way.
