Table made from reclaimed heart-pine floor boards from George Washington's god-daughter's home, the Bowie-Sevier House in Georgetown.  Wood is believed to be from Washington's Mount Vernon farm.  We know George Washington liked to dance, and he more than likely visited the home of is god-daughter in Georgetown where he likely danced.  I like to say George Washington danced on my table.
