George Washington's Mount Vernon Peach Brandy and my horse, Nelson

     


     In September, I was shown a giclee of a painting by Pamela Patrick White.  It was a special project that she had worked on with George Washington's Mount Vernon.  The painting was to be auctioned off, but it was to also be the new label for their peach brandy.  I purchased that giclee which was the first one printed, and it is now framed and on my wall in my home. 

     The special part of this is that it is the fifth painting that Pam has painted of my horse, Nelson.  Nelson is a retired Colonial Williamsburg horse that I adopted in November of 2014.  This year, next month, will be our 10th anniversary together.

     Now millions of people who purchase the brandy will see my Nelson on it.  I will definitely be purchasing a bottle of the brandy.

     Here is a photo of Nelson today.
