And on to .... ASHEVILLE, NC

Overwhelming X2 is best way to describe Asheville..... First of course is the gorgeous Blue Ridge Mountain Parkway.  Second was the Biltmore Estate (home of the Vanderbilts) with our timing, seeing the Chihuly glass collections. Below- Sunrise at Mills River overlook near the Pisgah Inn where we had breakfast overlooking the B R Mnts.




Biltmore Estate took the better part of a day.... the house has 250+ rooms, and there were
many pieces from the Chihuly collection scattered all over the grounds and through the house. House had a pool in it and bowling allies!





Downtown Asheville impressive, with many Breweries .... Had dessert at Double D's which is a retired British double decker bus turned into a cafe.... Also checked out a GOURD festival at Cherokee, NC.




Downtown ate at the LAUGHING SEED vegetarian restaurant- had delicious CAULIFLOWER CRUST PIZZA...

Lastly- we noticed that people apparently had knitted coverings for lampposts in the downtown Asheville area (?) um....  why??? Its called "KNIT- BOMBING" - kind of like someone intrusively PHOTO-BOMBS a photo, we may guess that these knittings intrude on our daily lives (?)
