Asheville, NC

So, why go to Asheville, -- because it is in the mountains, it has good fishing, it is a very rapidly developing new-hippy community. Also, we have not been to the Smokey Mtn area, or for that matter, western NC. So with a view to a new place, we focused on Asheville.

How we got here is also an interesting story. We were up in Camp Liberty, the Maine place of a friend of ours, and her nephew shows up.  We told him our plans and has says that his dad has a place in Asheville --- and we should stay there! So, with some communications, we ended up staying in his Dad's place. Well, actually his dad is an old friend and a former tenant of ours when we owned the 2-family in Belmont. So, we kind of fell into a nice place in the mountains of the Asheville area -- Marshall, NC  to be exact.

Here is the view from Ed's porch.
