This really big house is in Asheville,NC and it is the biggest house in the US. The square footage of the house is 4 acres. It
was so awesome to see it. It 
was my first time 
going to see it. Terry had been there when he was in Elementary School
I want to 
come back and bring the girl
s to see it. It is about an hour and twenty min from the house. We had a great time being with out the children but of course we bought them each something. They I'm sure enjoyed a break 
from us 
also. We spent three hours going around inside the Biltmore house. It is four stories and also has a gigantic basement. It was built in 1895 and it has the most beautiful tapestries and furniture and the library alone is huge. He loved books. This mans family got there money from railroads and shipping and of course there where no taxes back then so they had a lot of money. We ate lunch at The Stables restaurant and it was very nice. They messed up Terry's order so we got free dessert and it was a piece of chocolate mousse with raspberry and chocolate sauces and whipped topping and boy was it good. I can't wait to see the garden when the flowers are in bloom. They also have a huge garden,Stables and a Winery. We spent so much time at the house and grounds that we didn't get to see the rest of the sights. Maybe next time any family comes from out west we can take them to see it. They would love it.
