To kick off our first full day in Vermont, Jane met us at our campsite for a tour of our T@B-400 then we climbed into her car for the drive to Shelburne Farms, a local institution since late in the Nineteenth Century. We were intrigued with the Vanderbilt connection and thus with Asheville’s Biltmore Mansion. We wandered inside the great house admiring the portraits and the furnishings. Then there was awesome breakfast served in the grand dining room, the expansive views of Lake Champlain with the Adirondack Mountains, the enchanted yew forest, and the beautifully restored gardens. After breakfast we lingered on the lawn enjoying the gorgeous weather, the fabulous scenery, and friendly companionship.
