A Blue Ridge New Year

End of 2012/Beginning of 2013 Catch Up

My darling friend, Jean, was inspired to organize a fun family trip to Asheville, NC over New Year.  
We spent the last hours of 2012 and the first hours of the new year exploring The Biltmore and it's grounds with the O'Banions and discovering that, it turns out, we have a lot in common with the Venderbilts.  For instance, the Vanderbilts and the Smileys both have architectural taste which favors stylized dolphins and stone lions

 Huh. Who woulda guessed?
