A lovely Carolina day so we set out to explore a bit.  Went to Biltmore Village and also rode around Montreat, which is Billy Graham's home. Then we headed to Chimney Rock since neither of us had ever been there. It took another very windy mountain road to get there but worth it.  Thank goodness Nick is such a good driver....probably from his pilot training.

Good shopping in Chimney Rock, NC

Lake Lure, NC

Chimney Rock is a really nice area with lots of shops and great restaurants.  We were able to once again eat outside with a nice breeze just under the actual Chimney Rock.  We found out there are 500 steps up to the top, and the elevator no longer works; thus pictures from the ground level.  We then road to Lake Lure----where Dirty Dancing was filmed.  It's just beautiful with a beach area that looks so family friendly.  I was wishing we had our bathing suits.....that's my cup of tea though, not Nick's.
