I live in North Carolina. Asheville is one of my favorite places to go. It has everything. Outdoor life, great places to eat and is a wonderful place for artists. Just a ride along the Blue Ridge Parkway is enough to evoke some of the most pleasurable memories in my mind.
outdoor life I have done many of these hikes and tours. I’ve gone with friends, family and with Girl Scouts.—Nothing like a Llama Hike through the mountains yelling, “Llama Potty break, when they have to go.” —And by the way, they have to go, often.
The Biltmore House is so beautiful, and very interesting. Self-Guided tours are wonderful, as well as their new tours. You can do “mini camps” (for lack of a better term) now, and we’re ready to go, after my recovery. The wines are good, and I’m always up for a great wine tasting. I’ve stayed at the Inn and had wonderful food. Go during the Spring or Fall and it’s like a live painting.
Wilmington has many different places to visit, but I’ll be honest. I’ve stayed at the beach, gone to Cape Fear, visited some galleries. It is beautiful, but I’ve spent much more time in Asheville.
In Chapel Hill, I’ve been to the NC Botanical Gardens, UNC Chapel Hill (beautiful campus), wonderful bars (little ones) great shopping and great transportation.
