I got home late yesterday and crashed. I almost needed a vacation after all the shenanigans that got thrown down this past weekend. Everything is sorted for me to leave tomorrow. Today, I was going through all the videos and photos I took this weekend. I have a lot more work to do to get these up on the site. I’ll get to that when I hit Sapphire NC, tomorrow.
Thursday I got my full on initiation to the Asheville community. I shot out a few messages on Facebook and ended up linking with an old friend from high school. After a brief chillin’ period at the visitors center I had a place to crash, food to eat, and music to listen to.
I am going to the French Broad Music Festival today. I’m not sure if I will stay the whole weekend or leave on Saturday.
I have some cool stories to share from Thursday. First, I learned how to make and bottle beer. Afterwards, we took a stroll through downtown and stumbled across a wicked Bluegrass jam at Jack of the Woods and put down a few beers from the Green Man Brewery, compliments of my buddy JB. More about these adventures when I get back from the festival.
Until then, Here are some more funny signs I encountered from Charlotte, N.C. to my current destination, Asheville, NC.
Bangin’ breakfast at The Orchard Inn. Marianne hooked me up with the French toast because she knew I needed the carbs. I made a short trek up the road today, but with that meal I could have done four more of the same distance.
