The sky above Mount Vernon is a vast canvas, frequently painted with dramatic cloud formations that drift lazily across its expanse, promising either the soft patter of rain or the brilliant, unwavering gaze of the sun. Even the roads, winding and less travelled, seem to follow the natural contours of the earth, leading one through a landscape that feels both deeply rooted and perpetually in motion.
