Excellent, what state is this? Looks maybe like Colorado Springs?

Is that snow on the Vettes in the last shot?

It's in North Carolina, just outside of Asheville, near the western part of the state, near the border with Tennessee. Biltmore is the nation's largest private residence. And that looks like frost on that one photo, not snow. Was hoping to make it to this vette-together, but had to work. My local corvette club, RTP Corvettes, was there. Hate I missed it. Next year for sure!

Kewl thanks. I think there is a Biltmore Hotel in Colorado Spring too but probably nothing like what's in these pictures. I lived there for a while but never got over to see it.

When you've lived in Florida for a while, frost looks like snow!
