it connects all of our visitors to george washington in a direct visceral way. his love of this extraordinary place, and the view that he contemplated when setting out on his revolutionary journey to secure independence and create a more perfect union. but now, this tremendous resource saved for our country by the ladies association, and our partners for the last 60 years is under threat by a development project by dominion energy. the compressor station that they want to build as part of their pipeline, directly across the river. we believe it is unnecessary to be in that location. it is a location that does not make sense and the mount vernon's ladies association opposes it and helps the -- hopes the dominion can find a more suitable location that is outside of this historic view shed. dominion will argue that the compressor station will not be seen from mount vernon, so not to worry. but they cannot guarantee. -- they cannot guarantee that. they have not have final permitting on the shape of the building, nor the height. their promises are not binding. they c

george washington convoluted writing and a lot of that has to do with i am feeling underappreciated. nstead of quitting washington suggested a solution that could quell his restlessness to take action he would personally ride north to boston to meet with the general who was in charge of all british forces in the colonies he would petition governor shirley to rank him above the captain the governor granted permission in washington about the february accompanied by two service and subordinate officers with the journey on horseback of over 1000 miles but he hoped to determine his fate that he had to leave behind with the comanche had with that responsibility for guarding the frontier. action that indians were not across the mountains would prove false so washington goes to first to philadelphia then to new york at the very tip of manhattan island these days with a friend named beverly robinson and beverly's brother is speaker. beverly robinson with a woman of high standing so he was granted another huge chunk of our loyal man -- royal landgrab so susanna was part of that family and it ha

throughout the war to draw connections between themselves and the revolutionaries, especially george washington. washington's image was in the center of the great seal of the confederacy. it was on confederate currency and poseage stamps, letterheads, and envelopes and anything else they could think of. the confederates inaugurated jefferson davis for his term as confederate president on george washington's birthday, 1862. in front of the statue of george washington in virginia's capital square just blocks from where they are. they felt they were fighting the second american revolution, the second war for independence. they felt that washington was something like the grandfather of the confederacy. they felt he would have been on their side if he had been arrive in 1861. -- alive in 1861. that's a theme that the con federal, political and to some extent military leaders hit upon throughout the war, especially jefferson davis. davis never lost sight of this concept that he and his fellow confederates were fighting a war much like the one that washington and his fellow revolutionaries had fought
