The outside face of the famous two-sided clock over the front door at Monticello (Jefferson's home in Virginia). The other face is inside the entry hall. Jefferson had a clock in every room, and one outside, at a time when nine out of ten Americans had no clock at all. ( Thomas Jefferson's America )

"Poplar Forest," Thomas Jefferson's retreat home, located just two hours south of Charlottesville, Virginia. Jefferson designed this lovely octagonal home himself. While visitors from all over the world would show up on Jefferson's Monticello doorstep, Poplar Forest was strictly for family and invited guests.
