Jeanne had never been to the Biltmore Estate while the Christmas lights were still up, so we made the trip and she was wowed.

Lavish Christmas decorations like these in the Main Dining room adorned each space throughout the mansion.
Then we stayed in the old stone building in the Grove Park Inn. The winners of the gingerbread house competition were on display along with many beautiful themed Christmas trees. This place was also amazing.
For Valentine’s weekend, we slipped up to The Greenbrier Resort in John’s home state of West Virginia. John had previously been there but not Jeanne. We toured the Bunker, which was on Jeanne’s bucket list, and we did the mineral spa soak and tried to do everything that we could squeeze into a short weekend. We made some great memories there and hope to return.
Those were some fun trips, but now we are back to work. We are following Governor Cooper’s executive orders and trying to stay covid-19 free. We hope that you all stay healthy and safe, and we look forward to when we can all be together again.
