March 2013 – Leannderthal

Where I stood, thinking about the south

I’m remembering the bricks outside the Grove Park in, the crocuses blooming everywhere, and some of the strange things we saw at the Museum of Appalachia. Happy Easter!

While in Asheville, North Carolina, we visited the Biltmore Estate. I knew you had to be rich to live there, but it turns out that at $60 a pop you need to be fairly well off to tour the place. They also do not allow photography in the house, so I’ll show you outside the house. It was pretty cold and blustery, so Mark and I spent most our time in the greenhouse.

The Museum of Appalachia

Mark and I just got back from a trip to North Carolina. On the way we stopped at the Museum of Appalachia in Clinton, Tennessee, just off I-75. If you ever get a chance, stop and see this place. It’s wonderful!
