We’re off to Boone, North Carolina. Jethro simply can’t sit still. However, I have to tell you that, with your support, I have managed to persuade him to spend the winter in Asheville instead of Savannah. So we are back in Boone, North Carolina with the mission of securing our winter vacation residence in Asheville. And I guarantee you, it will be as close to the Biltmore as I can arrange. Think of it, Thanksgiving, and the Christmas holidays, at the Biltmore;;; – what eighteenth century dog could ask for anything more?

Hi Duchess,
Hope you and Richard have a good trip and I know you will be happy going back to the Biltmore! Have a safe trip!
Carmie and Lulu
Glad to hear you made it safe. Enjoy!
Hi Duchess,
I hope you and Richard have a good trip and I know you are happy to be going to the Biltmore! Have fun…drive safe.

Duchess,
Mom told me you were gone again and I just COULD NOT believe it. I dragged Dad over to your front door this afternoon (Mom was in the studio as usual) just to make sure. You didn’t come to the door when I knocked so I guess she was right. I tried to get them on your porch again this evening but they stubbornly assured me you were not there! I guess it’s your doghouse in Boone – I must say it is a doggie dream come true. Furniture and blankies all around to snuggle in and clear sight of Jethro every moment. You are a lucky dog!!!!
Mom and Dad said they saw Ika and Clay over by Bruton Parish when they were going in to church and had a very nice visit. Clay is so sweet to that Ika, she’s a little elderly – if there is such a thing – a little elderly and hates the heat. She’s going to like the evening walk and morning tomorrow as the temp and humidity dropped here about 7:00 p.m. We had a delightful walk even though I was disappointed with your absence. I did get to see Mac today and the Airedale, Henry, I think is his name but I don’t think he likes labradoodles – poor guy – he doesn’t know what he’s missing.
Ok, Mom’s ringing the bedtime bell – I just finished one of those tasty little doggy bones that were on our front porch this a.m. and I’m kinda pooped anyway. Sleep tight in Boone. I hope it doesn’t rain hard or hail. Have you talked to Richard about the new bubblewrap feature for Airstreams?………he might not know about that yet!
Best,
Lily
