Jefferson Grave Site

The sun came out and it warmed up. We decided to walk back to the Visitor Center. On the way we saw the Jefferson grave site. The grave site is still owned by the Jefferson family and is an active cemetery. It looked like someone had been recently buried.

It is interesting on his tombstone Jefferson put author of the Declaration of Independence, Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom and father of the University of Virginia. The fact he was president is never mentioned.
