I recently came across a postcard featuring a beautiful green picture of Mount Vernon, George Washington’s home. The sender, who signed off as Loraine, mentioned that the picture reminded them of the recipient, Loraine, and decided to send it their way. The message on the postcard was brief, mentioning a memory from their time at ND and expressing a desire for the recipient to remember them with smiles rather than tears.Mount Vernon, located on the banks of the Potomac River, holds historical significance as the home of George and Martha Washington. The estate was inherited by George Washington in 1754, and he made significant expansions to the buildings and property upon his marriage. The postcard mentioned that all the buildings on the estate have been restored to their original structures, allowing visitors to experience a piece of history.The postcard was sent from the Saxitone Bicentennial Shoppe in the USA, with the sender’s address listed as Loraine Fox from Plymouth, IN. The sender mentioned that they would be sending a letter soon and signed off with well wishes and a reminder to take care. The postcard serves as a reminder of the sender’s thoughtfulness and the historical significance of Mount Vernon as a symbol of America’s past.
