Thank you for the kind words about my grandpa. It's hard to believe it's been over two weeks. I had a dream about him last night and hope I will again soon. I don't always remember my dreams, so I love it when I can remember them and when people I love are in them.
I have been a most terrible blogger! It's a new(ish) month, so here's a new shot at blogging with some regularity. I hope everyone is doing well and that the Labor Day weekend was anything but laborious.
I finished up the month of August with a trip to the mountain town of Asheville (one of North Carolina's gems) with my mom and aunt for my mom's birthday.
Here are some pics from the weekend:
Biltmore House, aka America's Largest Home
Pretty epic house, but no pics were allowed on the inside, shucks.
One of the gardens
Flowers in the shape of a dragonfly
(I do not like dragonflies, but I do like flowers)
Lilypads
A FROG!
Just one of the pretty flowers
Our reward after a day of sightseeing
Mountain sunset
Another Asheville landmark: The Grove Park Inn
Looks so different without snow
A lovely view
Have a fabulous week!

i love the mountains of NC! (I've spent time in Boone and Blowing Rock are they pretty close to Ashville??)
gorgeous photos.
whoa, didn't realize the NC looked like this!
I'm late, but I'm so sorry about your grandfather. I'm glad he's visiting you in your dreams :) I've heard such wonderful things about Asheville and really hope we can make it up there before we move. Glad you had a great time!
Asheville looks so beautiful! What a great place to visit!
my grandpa passed away a week ago today, so I know how you are feeling. and i love asheville!
Looks like fun! The views there are spectacular! Fun fact: the yellow hibiscus is Hawaii's state flower :)
