March 21 is a special day for My Beautiful Bride and me.  We went to Tennessee’s Fall Creek Falls State Park on that day in 2001.  We visited the five waterfalls in the park (that’s a picture of Piney Falls above) and began a years long quest to visit as many waterfalls as we could.  But the best part of the day as that I got my first kiss from Betsy.  No wonder the date is special!

Biltmore Spring

As annual passholders,  Betsy and I visit the Biltmore estate in Asheville, North Carolina, several times each year.   We never tire of visiting the gardens and the conservatory each time.  While it would be difficult to pick a favorite time of the year to visit Biltmore, Spring is always beautiful — especially in the Walled Garden with tulips, roses and other flowers in bloom.  I got this picture looking toward the house from the Walled Garden.
