At Monticello I noted the following:
I later learned they are referred to as pavilions.
Trophies. This is one of my favorite sketches, inspired by the "findings" of Lewis and Clark. I'm thinking this may make a nice graphic somewhere down the line...
Lots of window treatments at Monticello...the complete opposite of Fallingwater.
Framed silhouettes. I'm adding some of these to my wish list.
A special elliptical arch... 
and some waiting students.

I love how gestural they are! Proof that it doesn't take long to make a great sketch...
I'm thinking your motto is: Have pen, will travel! :) I'm so glad to be back from vacation and checking out your blog regularly again; you inspire me.
Hi!I'm about to go to sleep but I saw your comment so...:)
Thanks for saying something.I hardly get any comments!I should draw more like you.In paper.Lately I've seen so many wonderful works in paper that I missed the time when I did not know anything about a PC-it wasn't too long ago!!
You ave great work in your blog,I'll be around!!:)
I just love your sketches, and the funny thing is that you noticed the same things I focused on during my first visit to Monticello. Although he didn't get to spend much time there, Thomas Jefferson obviously loved his home... :)
Lovely sketches! They feel so real, so full of life and atmosphere! I like the way there is no connection between each sketch - except your eyes - it gives a very personal idea of the place
ALL great, but love the top one the mostest.
Your sketches delight! They are so inspiring, I am looking for my pen right this second!
Love your observations about Monticello. When I visited, I loved the high ceilings and moldings, and of course the gardens :-)
