The social history of the Fairholme property is rich in detail. Fairholme was first created as a "summer cottage" for Fairman Rogers of Philadelphia, a wealthy arts patron and engineer. Twenty years later, the Drexel family, purchased the property and promptly enlarged and updated it, adding the Trumbauer ballroom and tower and otherwise modernizing the interior. Fairholme became the setting for lavish Newport entertaining, attended by friends and neighbors such as the Vanderbilts, the Astors, the Van Beurens, and the Belmonts. Later, the estate was acquired by the Count and Countess Alphonso Villa, followed by industrialist railroad magnate Robert Young, whose wife Anita was the sister of artist Georgia O'Keefe. The Duke and Duchess of Windsor were close friends of the Youngs and were frequent guests at the estate during their tenure there, as was Jack Kennedy, who often made use of the swimming pool.

This house is what dreams are made of.

America It Is Time To Fight To Save America's Treasures And Preserve America

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 17:33:00 +0000

The the Edison and Ford Winter Estates in Fort Myers, Florida is located along the Caloosahatchee River. The Estates was awarded the 2009 National Trust for Historic Preservation Award and is an official project of “Save America’s Treasures” at the National Trust for Historic Preservation, a Florida Historic Landmark and a National Register Historic Site. The architecture and furnishings of these gracious, buildings are reminiscent of a bygone era. However there are many innovations which we do not have in the most modern of homes. In the early 1900s, Edison built one of Florida's first modern swimming pools with cement from his own Edison Portland Cement Company. Edison used the water from an artesian well to fill the pool and irrigate the botanical gardens and it still holds water today.

The close friendship between Thomas Edison and Henry Ford brought the Ford's to Fort Myers in 1915 as guests in the Edison's home. The following year, Mr. Ford purchased the house next door to his good friend Thomas Edison. For years, the Fords came to their home in Fort Myers every winter to spend time with the Edisons. They shared their families homes, friends and well known guests such as Harvey Firestone and John Burroughs. On the Estate is an artifact museum, dedicated by Charles Edison, son of the inventor. The museum was built to preserve and house memorabilia related to Thomas Edison's life. One of the many educational displays in the museum is Edison's unique Model T Ford, a prototype model presented to Edison by his friend, Henry Ford. "Mangoes," the Ford's home was purchased by the City of Fort Myers in 1988 and was opened for public tours in 1990. In 1947 Mina Edison, wife of the legendary inventor Thomas Edison, donated the estate to the City of Fort Myers and in November of that year, public touring of the estate began. Mina Edison enjoyed entertaining throughout the gardens of her Florida Estate. She was a gracious hostess and interested in the well being of children and the community following in this tradition, Etiquette at the Estates, is a series of lessons offered today at the Estate.

The Edison and Ford Estate is filled with beach house finds and educational delight for adults and children of every generation. The President's budget proposes to eliminate funding for key historic preservation programs such as Save America's Treasures and Preserve America and reduce funding for National Heritage Areas by half. We American's need to fight to keep to send a message to your members of Congress asking them to support restoration of funding for Save America's Treasures and other critical preservation programs. Take action

Beach House Finds is asking for your help in restoring vital historic preservation programs proposed for elimination or cuts in the President's FY 2011 Budget Request. Support Historical Preservation

The Edison and Ford Estates is open daily from 9:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m.

Dreaming Of A South Pacific Getaway

noreply@blogger.com (Noir Blanc Interiors LLC) — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 23:38:00 +0000

For anyone who has ever dreamed of a South Pacific getaway, where hues of blue paint the seascape and the sand is pristine. Beach House Finds suggests lagoon living on the French Polynesia's Fours Seasons Bora Bora Resort, over water bungalows and beachfront villas on a private white sand fringed islet. Snorkeling and diving are at the top of the list of activities along with a variety of large marine life, manta rays, dolphins, sea cucumbers, brain coral, yellow and blue striped trigger fish, and sea turtles. Bora Bora is prime underwater exploration territory. After a day of marine life, the Four Seasons Bora Bora Spa is a warm welcoming haven, balancing the surging energy of the Pacific with the tranquility of the turquoise lagoon.

The island is so identified with black pearls that it’s called “the pearl of the Pacific”. Despite modern cultivation techniques, the black pearls of Bora Bora are still prized and highly valued jewels. There is an official guide for tourists, which is available at airports, tourism offices and some jewellers on the island.

Michener used Bora Bora as inspiration for his mythic Bali Ha’i. The music from the Broadway musical South Pacific runs through our heads as the sun set in orange, red and purple shades behind Mount Otemanu.
