I was fascinated with the kitchen areas especially and would love that pantry! We were there in June and thankfully it was cool because there isn't any AC. I wish we had time to visit the grounds in depth, but sadly we did not. I'm glad you were able to go and to bring Di! Great fun!Jackie's Stitcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04728521317964661942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1876048627096284071.post-49261578106668364202017-03-08T16:12:08.782-05:002017-03-08T16:12:08.782-05:00My son went to Biltmore, when he lived in the Sout...My son went to Biltmore, when he lived in the South and he also loved it.

So over the top in every way.

I'm so excited that you are enjoying your visit with Di! You'll both need a vacation from your vacation!

What actually impresses me is 1) the gardens, designed by Frederick Law Olmstead, and 2) the school of forestry (in the next county over) started by Vanderbilt and now a museum in Pisgah National Forest (much of the forest was owned by Vanderbilt at one time). If you come this way again, let me know :)Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06954060412714426647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1876048627096284071.post-83664269572110118592017-03-05T14:55:42.406-05:002017-03-05T14:55:42.406-05:00This place is on my bucket list, so, I shall have ...This place is on my bucket list, so, I shall have to find my way to the east coast again!!!!Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06711094854123479172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1876048627096284071.post-70232768537974069472017-03-05T14:03:10.756-05:002017-03-05T14:03:10.756-05:00Your photos brought back wonderful memories; my hu...Your photos brought back wonderful memories; my husband and I were there around six years ago.
