Asheville


Cheyn Planned a fun overnighter to Asheville NC this past weekend. Saturday morning we went to the Biltmore Estate, a giant mansion that is open to the public. It was really amazing inside. There was a bowling alley and giant dining room than seemed like it could seat 100 people. The furniture and rooms and painting were all super fancy. The grounds were amazing too. It was the biggest mansion I've ever been in. Afterwards I realized it was the mansion where Being There was filmed, a really funny movie about a TV addicted gardener who becomes friends with a billionaire.

Later that day we went and hiked a few hours on the Appalachian trail, with one foot in North Carolina and one foot in Tennessee (The trail divides the states). It was fun to be in such beautiful mountains. Cheyn planned a wonderful little get away.
