So today's shooting was a little different and something I am not particularly practiced in, so let me know what you think.
Today I photographed vehicles from 45 US States as well as the District of Columbia, The US Virgin Islands, Ontario, Canada, and Germany. This is meant to highlight the vast size of the jamboree and the great lengths Scouts took to get to this beautiful place in West Virginia. Enjoy.

George Washington and the Gnome
We had a wonderful day today at Mt. Vernon, the home of our first President George Washington. After a 45 minute Metro ride and a 30 minute Bus ride, we finally arrived at the famous plantation that belonged to our first commander in chief. It was very neat to see how he arranged his house and property to accommodate his livelihood, many hobbies, and family on his families gifted property. He designed, built, and laid out all of the buildings on his property, the landscaping, and the farming aspects to make for a perfect and flawless layout. Our day trip to Virginia was a lot of fun and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning about our nations foundation.
