More Biltmore Pictures
On Tuesday we took off for Asheville with Laura and Roy, David’s sister and brother-in-law, and their children, Kellie and Neil. The Biltmore House is something that we’ve been told since we moved here that we MUST go see, but this was our first time!
The stairway is illuminated by a giant iron chandelier that weighs almost a ton. Indoor pictures are not allowed, so you’ll have to go to the website to see more. The house took six years to build, and was finished when George Vanderbilt was 33 years old. The gardens and landscaping were designed by Frederick Law Olmsted (designer of NYC’s Central Park and Elm Park in Worcester, MA). 🙂
