An ornament with an animal on it for the #ornamenthunt! This is one of my favorites on the tree. We got this the year we visited the Biltmore estate jn Asheville, NC. It was a wonderful day of Segway tours, wine, and excellent food. #wintergames2021 #mistletoemaniacs

Our last day in North Carolina, and we took a long walk across the Biltmore Estate. It wasn‘t an #audiowalk, but a walk is a walk. Now I‘m relaxing and reading. I‘m looking forward to getting home and sleeping in my own bed.

kmshaffer I visited the Biltmore Estate last summer. It‘s beautiful! 6y
Kaye Beautiful photo. Great walk 👍🏼 6y

The Biltmore Estate in the NC mountains is sometimes called America‘s #Castle. It‘s library is my dream of the perfect library. #newhogwartsadventure @vkois88 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Beautiful ❤️❤️ 6y
CouronneDhiver Pretty! I‘ll have to get my MIL to take me next time I visit. 😍 6y
TobeyTheScavengerMonk There is a cool middle-grade fantasy series set in and around the Biltmore House! 6y

vkois88 That's insanely beautiful 6y
Lcsmcat @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @vkois88 You should see the inside. And the library! Google it sometime. A visit when I was 7 impressed me so much that I was determined to learn as many languages as Colonel Vanderbilt (11). I failed. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But It‘s an amazing library. 6y
Lcsmcat @TobeyTheScavengerMonk Wow! I did not know that. I‘ll have to check them out in a few years when my granddaughter is old enough for them. 6y
Lcsmcat @CouronneDhiver You should! I‘m sipping one of their wines right now and wishing I were on the grounds. 🍷 6y
vkois88 I'll look it up! 6y

I'm fascinated by Biltmore and its history so I thought I'd share this bookish history with my fellow Littens.

BarbaraJean I love that he logged his reading—starting when he was 12! I don‘t know much about Vanderbilt, but now I like him. 😊 6y
kyraleseberg @BarbaraJean They're a fascinating family, definitely worth reading about! 6y

Four libraries that were important to me: clockwise from upper right- Biltmore House Library (my inspiration to learn foreign languages); Salt Lake Public Library, which I miss daily, George Peabody Library, from my undergrad days, and the Enoch Pratt Free Library in Baltimore, which was the first place I could check out books in French. #libraryweek #happinessisresistance @writerlibrarian

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Beautiful ☺️📚❤️ 7y
Eggs Unbelievably wonderful ♥️♥️♥️ 7y
DivineDiana Since you mention two Baltimore libraries, I am thinking maybe you are from the Baltimore area? I was born and grew up in Baltimore! 7y
Lcsmcat @DivineDiana No, but my undergrad degree is from The Peabody. I loved both those libraries! 7y
DivineDiana Fantastic! 7y
