Monday Musings – On the Farm

Old MacDonald Had a Farm

Old MacDonald had a farm, 

E-I-E-I-O.

And on his farm he had some chicks, 

E-I-E-I-O.

With a chick, chick here,

And a chick, chick there,

Here a chick, there a chick,

Everywhere a chick, chick,

Old MacDonald had a farm, 

E-I-E-I-O.

The farmer was George Vanderbilt III, a member of one of America’s oldest & wealthiest families. In 1895 George Vanderbilt built a French Renaissance style chateau, The Biltmore Estate, in Asheville, North Carolina and it is referred to as “America’s largest home.” The photos are from Antler Farms, part of the Biltmore Estate.
