I just visited Asheville for the first time a few days ago. Great little town, AWESOME beer (and I am so not a beer lover), lots of cool, friendly people, and the mountains are wonderful. I definitely want to go back. I wouldn’t mind living there, but I’ve heard the job market is not so good. Jack in the Wood is a great little pub—EXCELLENT Irish music session on Sundays. NC Arboretum has the most beautiful bonsai I’ve ever seen. Next time I’m going to the Biltmore whether my hipster friends go or not!
