In May, 2016, we went on a Road scholar trip to New York for the Mansions of the Hudson River Valley. We saw 8 mansions for the super rich of the early 20th century. We saw the homes of John D. Rockefeller, the Vanderbilt's, the Roosevelt's and others. WE also visited West Point. It was a wonderful trip. The above home is the Vanderbilt's home. Most of these homes are now with the US Park Service or a non-profit organization with a big endowment.
The home of Franklin Roosevelt
The Roosevelts are buried on the old home place.
WE were invited to tea with them!
I do not remember whose home this was but it was big and beautiful.
The three pictures are from the gardens at the Roosevelt home.
Home again with Stella.
Showing off - just a little bit.
