| Babe and Fred! |
Thank you so much Nancy and Fred for the wonderful time. We loved visiting you new home and seeing the life you are not making in Columbus, N.C. I love your little town and look forward to visiting again. What a great day we had driving around the mountains and climbing Chimney Rock and seeing the beautiful waterfall.
And BABE! We love her!!

The Biltmore Estate
As a grandson of famed industrialist and philanthropist Cornelius Vanderbilt, George takes his place among one of America’s best-known families. In 1889 construction beings on the Estate, Vanderbilt’s 250-room French Renaissance chateau is a true marvel, the largest undertaking in residential architecture. Over a six-year period, an entire community of craftsmen comes together to create America’s premier home and the environmental wonderland that surrounds it.
