Southern States Tour! Day 6: Asheville, NC

We had a lot of fun today. We really did. We started early, 6:45 am, to make sure we had enough time to visit our major sight-seeing stop for the day, the very picturesque and grandiose Biltmore House. It was giant! Check out a group photo on the Facebook page. We enjoyed touring the many many rooms in the mansion, as well as roaming the beautiful, well-manicured gardens on the property. It was an awesome experience!

We didn't have any outreaches or workshops today, which turned out to be a blessing. Our show tonight was as the University of North Carolina Asheville. The theatre was on a second story with now access for our truck, so basically, everything needed to be carried up a flight of stairs. It was all hands on deck for our load in, and our load out! It was almost comical. Well heck, it was comical.

Dinner was once again a heavenly experience. We are being fed very well. We are so grateful for all the members who have prepared for us, who have taken us in, who have served us dinner, or who have done anything at all in preparation for our arrival. Without them, we would have no tour! Tomorrow is the Atlanta, Georgia Temple re-dedication, and we have our second fireside on tour! It'll be a good one!
