I do believe we picked the right place to live!
Just moved to Asheville, North Carolina a few months ago, and we are finally getting ready to enjoy our first spring in the Blue Ridge Mountains area. I, for one, cannot wait to get outside and go for a hike! Asheville is a great place to live from all I have heard and all I have experienced so far.
Food!
Tons of GREAT restaurants, great natural foods grocery stores - Earthfare, Greenlife, Trader Joes, and on top of that there are farmer's markets (think lots of local organic foods!) all over the city, and all year round!
Music!
The music scene is not to be missed either - it is no coincidence that Caleb Johnson, one of the finalists (and one of the top 3 in my opinion) on this season's American Idol, hails from Asheville. Whatever your tastes in music, you can find it here - there's even the occasional Cajun/Zydeco band that rockets through town on their way to one major fest or another! Laissez Les Bon Temps anyone?
Outdoors!
Lots of hiking to be had here, as well as plenty of small stream trout fishing. Probably some udder kinda fishing, too, but all I care about is the trout! Can't wait to explore this beautiful place. Only one thing missing - YOU! I miss all my friends and family that I moved away from or haven't seen yet. Hey, when are y'all gonna come see me, sha?!!!
