Williamsburg vs. Monticello?

For an upcoming “family reunion” trip, we’re looking to squeeze in stops at both Williamsburg and Monticello. I’m wondering about reasonable “weight of schedule” for them.

Currently my thinking is:

Day 1: leave D.C. early afternoon, spend evening in Williamsburg (4-5 hour drive, right?)

Day 2: Williamsburg, evening in Williamsburg.

Day 3: through mid-morning in Williamsburg, drive to Monticello (2 hours?) afternoon tour at Monticello, leave late afternoon, arrive D.C. early evening in time for latish dinner.

Any potholes in this plan?
