  • Today’s search challenge has three parts: 1.  (Easy) Who was Jefferson writing to when he wrote this famous line about “I have lived temperately… I double the Doctor’s recommendation…”?  What was the correspondent’s name?  2.  (Medium) Amazingly enough, more than 200 years later, the correspondent’s house still stands.  What color was that person’s house in 2009?  3.  (Hard)  How many times did Jefferson refer to wine in ALL of his writings?
