RE: New York
The Vanderbilts were fabulous folk.....I've been to Biltmore, their wonderful estate in Ashville. We put on a Victorian/Edwardian fashion show there about 20 years ago and were the guests of the Vanderbilt family descendants. They paid for our room and board and our car mileage down and back. No, we didn't STAY in Biltmore House, but we got a 2 hour backstairs tour that the public never sees....it's a fabulous place. And their dairy, ice cream and cheese cakes are not to be beat! They also have a winery. You can find their cheese cake, ice cream and wine in most groceries..... we carry them here in Virginia at Kroger, Martin's (Harris Teeter) and believe it or not - Walmart as well! They are not cheap...rather expensive, but worth every bit!
