Saturday March 31, 2018
I can't believe that the weather forecast for this Saturday is for brilliant sunshine with temperatures that could include outdoor sketching. Let's visit the Hamilton Grange National Memorial, also known as The Grange or the Hamilton Grange Mansion.
Alexander Hamilton created the tools for the success of the United States. From his humble beginnings as an orphan on the Caribbean island of Nevis, he became George Washington's right-hand man, and eventually our Treasurey Secretary.DETAILS
