The Hermitage

After the conference, we decided to visit Andrew Jackson's home, The Hermitage. The house and gardens were beautiful! We also learned a few things about our 7th president that we did not know. We love homeschool field trips!

        The front of the mansion. I found it interesting that
they brick on the front of the house was painted and
the rest of the brick was left natural.

I found these guys from Florida hanging
out on the back porch

The view of the side of the house from the garden

The gate leading to the lovely gardens

I thought this grave marker in the
cemetery was very unique
